In silico Prediction and Analysis of Autophagy Related Gene-5 Interacting Proteins and their Physicochemical Features

Abstract

Autophagy related gene-5 (ATG5) acts as a marker for autophagosome formation and initiation of autophagy flux. For performing these functions, ATG5 may interacts with several proteins. Hence, this study aims to identify ATG5 interacting proteins and their regulatory features using in silico approaches. Briefly, Search Tool for the retrieval of interacting genes/proteins (STRING) database predicted thirty-four ATG5 interacting proteins.
