SEC61A2: A Protein Involved in Intracellular Signaling and Cell-cell Interactions

SEC61A2 (Sec61 alpha-2) is a protein that is expressed in a variety of tissues throughout the body. It is a member of the SEC61 family of transmembrane proteins, which are characterized by their ability to form a transmembrane pore. SEC61A2 is also known asalpha-2, or simply alpha-2, and is a 21-kDa protein that is expressed in the liver, lung, and heart.

The primary function of SEC61A2 is not well understood, but it is believed to play a role in the regulation of intracellular signaling pathways. It is expressed in the liver, lung, and heart and is also found in various other tissues, including the brain, where it is thought to be involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter release.

One of the key features of SEC61A2 is its ability to form a transmembrane pore, which allows it to interact with intracellular signaling proteins. This interaction is thought to be important for the regulation of intracellular signaling pathways, including the regulation of cell growth, apoptosis, and inflammation.

In addition to its role in intracellular signaling pathways, SEC61A2 is also thought to be involved in the regulation of cell-cell interactions. It is expressed in the liver and has been shown to interact with the protein known as CSN1, which is also expressed in the liver and is involved in the regulation of cell-cell signaling.

The precise function of SEC61A2 is not well understood, but it is clear that it is involved in the regulation of intracellular signaling pathways and cell-cell interactions. As a drug target or biomarker, SEC61A2 may be a useful target for the development of new therapies for a variety of diseases, including liver disease, lung disease, and heart disease.

Protein Name: SEC61 Translocon Subunit Alpha 2

Functions: Component of SEC61 channel-forming translocon complex that mediates transport of signal peptide-containing precursor polypeptides across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Forms a ribosome receptor and a gated pore in the ER membrane, both functions required for cotranslational translocation of nascent polypeptides
