Atg13 - autophagy related 13 Gene

Predicted to enable protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including macroautophagy; piecemeal microautophagy of the nucleus; and positive regulation of protein targeting to mitochondrion. Predicted to act upstream of or within autophagosome assembly. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be part of Atg1/ULK1 kinase complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol and phagophore assembly site. Predicted to be extrinsic component of membrane. Orthologous to human ATG13 (Autophagy related 13).
