Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionlgg-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Atg8p and mammalian MAP-LC3; by homology, LGG-1 is predicted to be required for the degradation of cellular components by autophagy; loss of lgg-1 function via RNAi indicates that, like several other C. elegans genes involved in autophagy, lgg-1 is essential for normal dauer morphogenesis and life-span extension; a GFP::LGG-1 reporter fusion protein is expression in several different stages of development in multiple tissues, including the nervous system, pharynx, intestine, hypodermis, somatic gonad and vulva; under normal growth conditions, GFP::LGG-1 shows a diffuse cytoplasmic localization, but during dauer formation and in long-lived animals, GFP::LGG-1 shows a marked increase in punctate staining in hypodermal seam cells that likely reflects an increase in the number of preautophagosomal and autophagosomal structures.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00006070

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable GABA receptor binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including defense response to other organism; plasma membrane repair; and positive regulation of autophagosome assembly. Located in bounding membrane of organelle; neuron projection; and neuronal cell body. Expressed in several structures, including egg-laying apparatus; germ cell; hypodermis; intestine; and nervous system. Is an ortholog of human GABARAP (GABA type A receptor-associated protein).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkSequence connection from [Kimura Y]
Map 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
