This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants) and 205 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 8.9), fat (RPKM 8.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Autophagy is a process of bulk protein degradation in which cytoplasmic components, including organelles, are enclosed in double-membrane structures called autophagosomes and delivered to lysosomes or vacuoles for degradation. ATG12 is the human homolog of a yeast protein involved in Autophagy (Mizushima et al., 1998 [PubMed 9852036]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
