TBC1D14
Description
The TBC1D14 (TBC1 domain family member 14) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 4.
TBC1D14 plays a key role in regulating the formation of autophagosomes, particularly when cells are starved. It collaborates with the TRAPPIII complex to control the movement of vesicles from recycling endosomes to the early Golgi apparatus. This transport process is essential for maintaining the proper levels of ATG9, a protein crucial for initiating autophagy.
