Atg7 (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Autophagy-related protein 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATG7 gene.This gene was identified based on homology to Pichia pastoris GSA7 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae APG7. In the yeast, the protein appears to be required for fusion of peroxisomal and vaculuolar membranes. The protein shows homology to the ATP-binding and catalytic sites of the E1 ubiquitin activating enzymes.
