Protein SEC13 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEC13 gene.[1][2]

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SEC13 family of WD-repeat proteins. It has similarity to the yeast SEC13 and SEC31 proteins, which are required for vesicle biogenesis from the endoplasmic reticulum during the transport of proteins.[2]
