LGG-2 (Caenorhabditis elegans)
Description [+]
- Synonyms: LGG-2
- Species: Metazoa;Bilateria;Ecdysozoa;Nematoda; Caenorhabditis elegans
- Short gene description: lgg-2 encodes an ortholog of the autophagic budding yeast protein Atg8p. LGG-2 is also homologous the light chain 3 (LC3) subunit of the microtubule-associated proteins 1A and 1B (MAP1A and MAP1B). LGG-2 is predicted to associate with MAP1A and MAP1B and with microtubules and to perhaps play a role in regulating the microtubule-binding activity of MAP1A and MAP1B. LGG-2 has no obvious function in RNAi assays, and is not required for either dauer formation or extended lifespan. [Source: WormBase]
