Atg14 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable GTPase binding activity; phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase regulator activity; and protein-membrane adaptor activity. Involved in autophagy; cellular response to glucose starvation; and regulation of protein phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within defense response to virus; innate immune response; and regulation of triglyceride metabolic process. Located in axoneme; mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane contact site; and phagocytic vesicle. Part of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III. Is expressed in cerebral cortex. Orthologous to human ATG14 (autophagy related 14). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Atg14 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
