    Summary
    Predicted to enable Atg12 activating enzyme activity; Atg8 activating enzyme activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to morphine; negative regulation of mitochondrial DNA replication; and negative regulation of oxidative stress-induced neuron death. Located in axon. Used to study high grade glioma. Biomarker of hypertension; myocardial infarction; neurodegenerative disease; and paraplegia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia. Orthologous to human ATG7 (autophagy related 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
