Description
WD-repeats are motifs that are found in a variety of proteins and are characterized by a conserved core of 40-60 amino acids that commonly form a tertiary propeller structure. While proteins that contain WD-repeats participate in a wide range of cellular functions, they are generally involved in regulatory mechanisms concerning chromatin assembly, cell cycle control, signal transduction, RNA processing, apoptosis and vesicular trafficking. AMBRA1 (Activating molecule in BECN1-regulated autophagy protein 1), also known as WDR94 or KIAA1736, is a 1,298 amino acid protein that contains three WD repeats. Localized to cytoplasmic vesicles, AMBRA1 functions to control protein turnover, cell proliferation and cell survival during neuronal development, thereby playing an important role in autophagy and the development of the nervous system. Multiple isoforms of AMBRA1 exist due to alternative spicing events
