About ATG3

Cytogenetic location: 3q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:112,532,510-112,561,962 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants) and 220 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 24.5), bone marrow (RPKM 17.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a ubiquitin-like-conjugating Enzyme and is a component of ubiquitination-like systems involved in Autophagy, the process of degradation, turnover and recycling of cytoplasmic constituents in eukaryotic cells. This protein is known to play a role in regulation of Autophagy during cell death. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 20. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
