Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable GTPase binding activity; phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor activity; and protein-membrane adaptor activity. Involved in autophagy; cellular response to glucose starvation; and regulation of protein phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within regulation of triglyceride metabolic process. Located in axoneme; mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and phagocytic vesicle. Part of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III. Orthologous to human ATG14 (autophagy related 14).
