Function |
Defines endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (ERES) and is required for secretory cargo traffic from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. SAR1A-GTP-dependent assembly of SEC16A on the ER membrane forms an organized scaffold defining an ERES. Required for normal transitional endoplasmic reticulum (tER) organization. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17005010, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17192411}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000305}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Note=SAR1A activity is required to maintain SEC16A localization at discrete locations on the ER membrane perhaps by preventing its dissociation.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitous. Expressed at higher levels in the pancreas. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17192411}.
