DRAM2 DNA damage regulated autophagy modulator 2 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 128338)
Symbol: DRAM2
Full name: DNA damage regulated autophagy modulator 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: CORD21; PRO180; TMEM77; WWFQ154
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene binds microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 and is required for autophagy. Defects in this gene are a cause of retinal dystrophy. In addition, two microRNAs (microRNA 125b-1 and microRNA 144) can bind to the mRNA of this gene and produce the disease state. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]
