Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

atg16Autophagy protein 16; Stabilizes the atg5-atg12 conjugate and mediates the formation of the 350 kDa complex, which is necessary for autophagy. The atg5-atg12/atg16 complex is required for efficient promotion of atg8- conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine and atg8 localization to the preautophagosomal structure (PAS). Involved in endoplasmic reticulum- specific autophagic process and is essential for the survival of cells subjected to severe ER stress. Required for meiotic chromosome segregation. (143 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
atg5
Autophagy protein 5; Involved in cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagic vesicle formation. Autophagy is essential for maintenance of amino acid levels and protein synthesis under nitrogen starvation. Required for selective autophagic degradation of the nucleus (nucleophagy). Also required for mitophagy, which eliminates defective or superfluous mitochondria in order to fulfill cellular energy requirements and prevent excess ROS production. Conjugation with atg12, through a ubiquitin-like conjugating system involving atg7 as an E1- like activating enzyme and atg10 as an E2- [...]

atg12
Ubiquitin-like protein ATG12; Ubiquitin-like protein involved in cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt), autophagy vesicles formation, mitophagy, and nucleophagy. Conjugation with atg5 through a ubiquitin-like conjugating system involving also atg7 as an E1-like activating enzyme and atg10 as an E2-like conjugating enzyme, is essential for its function. The atg12-atg5 conjugate functions as an E3-like enzyme which is required for lipidation of atg8 and atg8 association to the vesicle membranes (By similarity). Plays a role in meiosis and sporulation.

atg3
Autophagy-related protein 3; E2 conjugating enzyme required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy. Required for selective autophagic degradation of the nucleus (nucleophagy) as well as for mitophagy which contributes to regulate mitochondrial quantity and quality by eliminating the mitochondria to a basal level to fulfill cellular energy requirements and preventing excess ROS production. Responsible for the E2-like covalent binding of phosphatidylethanolamine to the C- terminal Gly of atg8. The atg12-atg5 conjugate plays a role of an E3 and promotes the transfer of [...]

atg2
Autophagy-related protein 2; Required for cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) vesicles and autophagosomes completion and peroxisome degradation (By similarity). Appears to have a role in sporulation.

atg1803
SVP1-like protein 2; Involved in mitochondrial or peroxisomal functions and amino acid signaling pathways; Belongs to the WD repeat SVP1 family.
   
  
 0.761
ctl1
Choline transporter-like protein ctl1; Required for the normal organization of the preautophagosomal structure (PAS) and for the correct subcellular location of atg9. Belongs to the CTL (choline transporter-like) family.
      
 0.760
atg4
Probable cysteine protease atg4; Cysteine protease required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy. Required for selective autophagic degradation of the nucleus (nucleophagy) as well as for mitophagy which contributes to regulate mitochondrial quantity and quality by eliminating the mitochondria to a basal level to fulfill cellular energy requirements and preventing excess ROS production. Cleaves the C-terminal amino acid of atg8 to reveal a C-terminal glycine. Atg8 ubiquitin-like activity requires the exposure of the glycine at the C- terminus for its conjugation t [...]

atg13
Autophagy protein 13; Activates the atg1 kinase in a nutritional condition dependent manner through the TOR pathway, leading to autophagy. Also involved in cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and more specifically in Cvt vesicle formation. Seems to play a role in the switching machinery regulating the conversion between the Cvt pathway and autophagy. Autophagy functions to supply nitrogen and is activated when cells cannot access exogenous nitrogen, thus ensuring that they can adapt and subsequently propagate. Finally, atg13 is also required for glycogen storage during stationary phas [...]

atg7
Ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme atg7; E1-like activating enzyme involved in the 2 ubiquitin-like systems required for cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy. Activates atg12 for its conjugation with atg5 and atg8 for its conjugation with phosphatidylethanolamine. Both systems are needed for the atg8 association to Cvt vesicles and autophagosomes membranes. Autophagy is essential for maintenance of amino acid levels and protein synthesis under nitrogen starvation. Required for selective autophagic degradation of the nucleus (nucleophagy) as well as for mitophagy wh [...]
