About ATG4A

Cytogenetic location: Xq22.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:108,088,829-108,154,671 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 162 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 5.4), colon (RPKM 5.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Autophagy is the process by which endogenous proteins and damaged organelles are destroyed intracellularly. Autophagy is postulated to be essential for cell homeostasis and cell remodeling during differentiation, metamorphosis, non-apoptotic cell death, and aging. Reduced levels of Autophagy have been described in some malignant tumors, and a role for Autophagy in controlling the unregulated cell growth linked to Cancer has been proposed. This gene encodes a member of the autophagin protein family. The encoded protein is also designated as a member of the C-54 family of cysteine proteases. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
