Name | SEC14L2 |
---|---|
Synonyms | C22orf6, KIAA1186, KIAA1658 |
Function | Carrier protein. Binds to some hydrophobic molecules and promotes their transfer between the different cellular sites. Binds with high affinity to alpha-tocopherol. Also binds with a weaker affinity to other tocopherols and to tocotrienols. May have a transcriptional activatory activity via its association with alpha- tocopherol. Probably recognizes and binds some squalene structure, suggesting that it may regulate cholesterol biosynthesis by increasing the transfer of squalene to a metabolic active pool in the cell. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Cytoplasmic in absence of alpha-tocopherol, and nuclear in presence of alpha-tocopherol |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Strong expression in liver, brain and prostate. |

Background
This gene encodes a cytosolic protein which belongs to afamily of lipid-binding proteins including Sec14p, alpha-tocopheroltransfer protein, and cellular retinol-binding protein. The encodedprotein stimulates squalene monooxygenase which is a downstreamenzyme in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway. Alternativelyspliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have beenidentified for this gene.
