WD repeat and FYVE domain-containing protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WDFY3gene.[5][6]
This gene encodes a protein which contains WD repeats and an FYVE domain. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined.[6]
Biochemistry
This protein appears to act as a autophagy scaffolding protein.[7]
