Protein Domain : Autophagy-related protein 16 domain IPR013923

Type  Domain
Description  Macroautophagy is a bulk degradation process induced by starvation in eukaryotic cells. In yeast, 15 Atg proteins coordinate the formation of autophagosomes. The pre-autophagosomal structure contains at least five Atg proteins: Atg1p, Atg2p, Atg5p, Aut7p/Atg8p and Atg16p, found in the vacuole [ , ]. The C-terminal glycine of Atg12p is conjugated to a lysine residue of Atg5p via an isopeptide bond. During autophagy, cytoplasmic components are enclosed in autophagosomes and delivered to lysosomes/vacuoles. Autophagy protein 16 (Atg16) has been shown to bind to Atg5 and is required for the function of the Atg12p-Atg5p conjugate []. Autophagy protein 5 (Atg5) is directly required for the import of aminopeptidase I via the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting pathway [].This entry represents autophagy protein 16 (Apg16), which is required for the function of the Apg12p-Apg5p conjugate.
