Gene: VGLL4

Alternate names for this Gene: VGL-4

Gene Summary:

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3p25.3-p25.2

Description of this Gene: vestigial like family member 4

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: ATG7

Alternate names for this Gene: APG7-LIKE|APG7L|GSA7

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an E1-like activating enzyme that is essential for autophagy and cytoplasmic to vacuole transport. The encoded protein is also thought to modulate p53-dependent cell cycle pathways during prolonged metabolic stress. It has been associated with multiple functions, including axon membrane trafficking, axonal homeostasis, mitophagy, adipose differentiation, and hematopoietic stem cell maintenance. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
