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 [...] (363 aa) | ||||
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 [...] (401 aa) | ||||
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- [...] (317 aa) | ||||
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 [...] (702 aa) | ||||
atg8 | Autophagy-related protein 8; Ubiquitin-like modifier involved in autophagosomes formation. With atg4, mediates the delivery of the autophagosomes to the vacuole via the microtubule cytoskeleton. 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. Participates also in membrane fusion events that take place in the early secretory pathway. Also involved [...] (118 aa) | ||||
atg9 | Autophagy-related protein 9; Involved in autophagy and cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) vesicle formation. Plays a key role in the organization of the preautophagosomal structure/phagophore assembly site (PAS), the nucleating site for formation of the sequestering vesicle. Required for mitophagy. Cycles between the PAS and the cytoplasmic vesicle pool and may participate in supplying membrane for the growing autophagosome. Also involved in endoplasmic reticulum-specific autophagic process and is essential for the survival of cells subjected to severe ER stress. Different machinerie [...] (948 aa) | ||||
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). (172 aa) | ||||
atg18 | Autophagy-related protein 18; The PI(3,5)P2 regulatory complex regulates both the synthesis and turnover of phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2). Necessary for proper vacuole morphology. Plays an important role in osmotically-induced vacuole fragmentation. Required for cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) vesicle formation, pexophagy and starvation- induced autophagy. Involved in correct atg9 trafficking to the pre- autophagosomal structure.
