This gene encodes a protein which contains WD repeats and an FYVE domain. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined.[6]

Biochemistry

edit

This protein appears to act as a autophagy scaffolding protein.[7]

Clinical

edit

Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodevelopmental delay, intellectual disability, macrocephaly and psychiatric disorders (autism spectrum disorders/attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).[7]
