Description (Long Description) : 

FUNCTION: Functions as an E1 enzyme essential for multisubstrates such as GABARAPL1 and ATG12. Forms intermediate conjugates with GABARAPL1 (GABARAPL2, GABARAP or MAP1ALC3). Formation of the final GABARAPL1-PE conjugate is essential for autophagy. SUBUNIT: Homodimer (By similarity). Interacts with ATG3 and ATG12. The complex, composed of ATG3 and ATG7, plays a role in the conjugation of ATG12 to ATG5. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (Probable). ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: 2 named isoforms produced by alternative splicing. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed, especially in kidney, liver, lymph nodes and bone marrow. DOMAIN: The C-terminal part of the protein is essential for the dimerization and interaction with ATG3 and ATG12. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ATG7 family. In yeast, ATG7 appears to be required for fusion of peroxisomal and vaculuolar membranes.

Immunogen (Antigen) :A synthetic peptide (DSTRDRTLDQQC) corresponding to the C-terminal of human APG7 protein conjugated to blue carrier protein has been used as the immunogen. The peptide is homologous with the corresponding sequence derived from APG7 protein in mouse, rat, S. cerevisiae, Macaca mulatta (monkey) and Canis familiaris (dog).
