Protein Summary

The SECISBP2L protein (UniProt Q9Y6X0) is a 684-amino acid protein that contains a selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) binding domain. It is localized in the cytoplasm and cytosol and is involved in RNA binding and selenocysteine incorporation. The protein may function as a cofactor for selenoprotein synthesis, similar to SECISBP2.
