Summary: Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase binding activity and protein-macromolecule adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to potassium ion starvation; macroautophagy; and vacuolar transport. Located in cytoplasm and vacuole-isolation membrane contact site. Part of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III, type I and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III, type II. Used to study breast cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Machado-Joseph disease. Orthologous to human BECN1 (beclin 1) and BECN2 (beclin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
