Autophagy-related protein 9A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATG9A gene.[5]

Functional studies indicate that ATG9A plays a role in autophagy.[6][7] and other non-autophagy membrane remodeling processes such as plasma membrane repair.[8] Enzymatically, it is a lipid scramblase.[6][7] ATG9A interacts with IQGAP1 and the ESCRT machinery in membrane remodeling.[8]
