ATG7

Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
ATG7
Name
autophagy related 7
Synonyms
  • APG7 autophagy 7-like
  • apg7 autophagy 7-like (s. cerevisiae)
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables Atg12 activating enzyme activity and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hyperoxia; defense response to virus; and macroautophagy. Acts upstream of or within autophagy; positive regulation of protein modification process; and protein lipidation. Located in cytoplasm. Is active in phagophore assembly site. Implicated in autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 31.
RGD Description
This gene encodes an E1-like activating enzyme that is essential for autophagy and cytoplasmic to vacuole transport. The encoded protein is also thought to modulate p53-dependent cell cycle pathways during prolonged metabolic stress. It has been associated with multiple functions, including axon membrane trafficking, axonal homeostasis, mitophagy, adipose differentiation, and hematopoietic stem cell maintenance. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
