ATG16L1 autophagy related 16 like 1

Gene ID: 55054, updated on 7-Jul-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: IBD10; WDR30; APG16L; ATG16A; ATG16L

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is part of a large protein complex that is necessary for autophagy, the major process by which intracellular components are targeted to lysosomes for degradation. Defects in this gene are a cause of susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease type 10 (IBD10). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
