SEC14L2

SEC14L2 is a gene that, in humans, encodes the protein SEC14-like protein 2.

Function
This gene encodes a cytosolic protein which belongs to a family of lipid-binding proteins including Sec14p, alpha-tocopherol transfer protein, and cellular retinol-binding protein. The encoded protein stimulates squalene monooxygenase which is a downstream enzyme in metabolism of cholesterol.
