SEC14L2, C22orf6, KIAA1186, KIAA1658, SEC14-like protein 2, Alpha-tocopherol-associated protein, Squalene transfer protein, Supernatant protein factor

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 the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene.
