Lrsam1 - leucine rich repeat and sterile alpha motif containing 1

Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of macroautophagy; protein ubiquitination; and ubiquitin-dependent endocytosis. Predicted to act upstream of or within autophagy and protein transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol and membrane. Is expressed in cranial ganglion; dorsal root ganglion; hindbrain; and olfactory epithelium. Used to study Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2P. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2P. Orthologous to human LRSAM1 (leucine rich repeat and sterile alpha motif containing 1).
