Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including ceramide binding activity; microtubule binding activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Involved in autophagy. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of mucus secretion. Located in autolysosome; axoneme; and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; heart; limb; peripheral nervous system ganglion; and sensory organ. Orthologous to several human genes including MAP1LC3B (microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta). [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.
