Protein transport protein Sec16B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEC16B gene.[1][2][3]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of SEC16B function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Sec16btm1a(KOMP)Wtsi[9][10] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[11][12][13]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[7][14] Twenty one tests were carried out on mutant mice and one significant abnormality was observed: homozygote mutants had decreased circulating cholesterol levels.[7]
