Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable lipid transfer activity; phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate binding activity; and protein-membrane adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in macroautophagy and positive regulation of autophagosome assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid transport. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum; lipid droplet; and membrane. Predicted to be active in organelle membrane contact site; phagophore; and phagophore assembly site. Orthologous to human ATG2A (autophagy related 2A).
