(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID83734
Official gene symbolATG10
Full nameATG10 autophagy related 10 homolog (S. cerevisiae)
Aliases,APG10,APG10L,DKFZp586I0418,FLJ13954,pp12616,
Gene summaryAutophagy is a process for the bulk degradation of cytosolic compartments by lysosomes. ATG10 is an E2-like enzyme involved in 2 ubiquitin-like modifications essential for autophagosome formation: ATG12 (MIM 609608)-ATG5 (MIM 604261) conjugation and modification of a soluble form of MAP-LC3 (MAP1LC3A; MIM 601242), a homolog of yeast Apg8, to a membrane-bound form (Nemoto et al., 2003 [PubMed 12890687]).[supplied by OMIM]
