| UniProt Protein Function: | ATG16L1: Plays an essential role in autophagy. Homooligomer. Interacts with ATG5. Part of either the minor and major complexes respectively composed of 4 sets of ATG12-ATG5 and ATG16L1 (400 kDa) or 8 sets of ATG12-ATG5 and ATG16L1 (800 kDa). Belongs to the WD repeat ATG16 family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:Membrane protein, peripheral; Adaptor/scaffold; Autophagy Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 2q37.1 Cellular Component: autophagic vacuole; axoneme; cytosol Molecular Function:identical protein binding; protein binding; small conjugating protein ligase activity Biological Process: autophagic vacuole formation; macroautophagy Disease: Inflammatory Bowel Disease 10 |
| NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is part of a large protein complex that is necessary for autophagy, the major process by which intracellular components are targeted to lysosomes for degradation. Defects in this gene are a cause of susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease type 10 (IBD10). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010] |
