Sall4 | Sal-like protein 4; Transcription factor with a key role in the maintenance and self-renewal of embryonic and hematopoietic stem cells; Belongs to the sal C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. (1067 aa) | ||||
Atg4d | Cysteine protease ATG4D, mitochondrial; [Cysteine protease ATG4D]: Cysteine protease required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy. Cleaves the C- terminal amino acid of ATG8 family proteins MAP1LC3 and GABARAPL2, to reveal a C-terminal glycine. Exposure of the glycine at the C-terminus is essential for ATG8 proteins conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and insertion to membranes, which is necessary for autophagy. Has also an activity of delipidating enzyme for the PE-conjugated forms. (474 aa) |
