S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase-like protein 1 (AHCYL1), also known as Inositol triphosphate (IP(3)) receptor-binding protein released with IP(3) (IRBIT), plays roles in many cellular functions, including autophagy and apoptosis but AHCYL1 role in lung cancer is largely unknown. The gene discussed is AHCYL1; the disease is lung cancer.
