Furthermore, some uncovered DAS gene events were localized within transcripts involved in autophagy, such as the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta (MAP1LC3B; a gene known to be an autophagy marker strongly expressed in HCC cells) [74] and the autophagy-related 7 gene (ATG7; encoding a protein working in the autophagy pathway as a ubiquitin-activating enzyme) [75]. Here, ATG7 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
