WIPI proteins: Biological functions and related syndromes

WIPI (WD-repeat protein Interacting with PhosphoInositides) are important effectors in autophagy. These proteins bind phosphoinositides and recruit autophagy proteins. In mammals, there are four WIPI proteins: WIPI1, WIPI2, WIPI3 (WDR45B), and WIPI4 (WDR45). These proteins consist of a seven-bladed...
