QuickView for Atg12 (gene)

Gene Symbol:

ATG12 Homo sapiens

Full name:

autophagy related 12

Synonyms:

APG12, APG12L, FBR93, HAPG12, ubiquitin-like protein ATG12, APG12 autophagy 12-like, ATG12 autophagy related 12 homolog, Apg12 (autophagy, yeast) homolog

Genomic Location:

Chr 5: 115193714-115205398

Description:

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]).
