About MAP1LC3A

Cytogenetic location: 20q11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:34,546,844-34,560,345 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 31.2), fat (RPKM 18.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

MAP1A and MAP1B are microtubule-associated proteins which mediate the physical interactions between microtubules and components of the Cytoskeleton. MAP1A and MAP1B each consist of a heavy chain subunit and multiple light chain subunits. The protein encoded by this gene is one of the light chain subunits and can associate with either MAP1A or MAP1B. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The expression of variant 1 is suppressed in many tumor cell lines, suggesting that may be involved in carcinogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
