Fyco1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in plus-end-directed vesicle transport along microtubule and positive regulation of autophagosome maturation. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be active in autophagosome; late endosome; and lysosome. Is expressed in central nervous system; early conceptus; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract 18. Orthologous to human FYCO1 (FYVE and coiled-coil domain autophagy adaptor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Fyco1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
