This gene produces a protein that controls autophagy, a starvation-induced catabolic process of destruction. The encoded protein functions as a part of the vesicle-trafficking processes-mediating phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) complex. This protein is believed to be involved in a number of cellular processes, such as apoptosis, neurodegeneration, and cancer. There are various transcript variations produced by alternative splicing.
