Complete deficiency of SEC23B in mice leads to perinatal death caused by massive degeneration of professional secretory tissues. However, functions of SEC23B in postnatal mice and outside professional secretory tissues are unclear. In this study, we generated a Sec23b KO mouse and a knockin (KI) mouse with...
