Gene

ATG8

Species
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Symbol
ATG8
Name
AuTophaGy related
Synonyms
  • APG8
  • AUT7
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables phosphatidylethanolamine binding activity and protein tag activity. Involved in several processes, including lipid droplet formation; macroautophagy; and protein targeting to vacuole. Located in phagophore assembly site; vacuole; and vacuole-isolation membrane contact site. Is active in lipid droplet. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glioblastoma. Orthologous to several human genes including GABARAPL1 (GABA type A receptor associated protein like 1) and GABARAPL3 (GABA type A receptor associated protein like 3 (pseudogene)).
SGD Description
Ubiquitin-like protein conjugated to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE); role in membrane fusion and phagophore expansion during autophagosome formation; deconjugation is also required for biogenesis; targets Atg1p to autophagosomes; binds to the Atg1p-Atg13p complex, triggers its vacuolar degradation; role in vacuolar membrane protein turnover during early stationary phase; component of autophagosomes and Cvt vesicles; targeted to vacuole via AP-3 pathway
