Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionepg-6 encodes a WD40 repeat-containing protein that is related to the mammalian WIPI3/4 family of proteins (WD40 repeat protein interacting with phosphoinositides); in C. elegans, epg-6 activity is required for autophagic processes, specifically for the formation of autophagosomes from omegasomes (PtdIns(3)P-enriched endoplasmic reticulum subdomains) and for proper distribution of the autophagic proteins ATG-9 and EPG-1; EPG-6 binds ATG-2 in vitro and in vivo and also binds, in vitro, PtdIns(3)P and PtdIns(5)P and weakly binds PtdIns(4)P and PtdIns(3,5)P2; an EGP-6::GFP reporter fusion protein is widely expressed during embryonic and post-embryonic development, and localizes diffusely to the cytoplasm.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00039980

Reference (12)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
