The role of ATG16L2 in autophagy and disease
3 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Macroautophagy/autophagy, a fundamental cell process for nutrient recycling and defense against pathogens (termed xenophagy), is crucial to human health. ATG16L2 (autophagy related 16 like 2) is an autophagic protein and a paralog of ATG16L1. Both proteins are implicated in similar diseases such as cancer and other chronic diseases; however, most autophagy studies to date have primarily focused on the function of...
