IPR015412

Description

IPR015412 is a Atg2/VPS13, C-terminal.

<p>Eukaryotes have developed an evolutionarily conserved process, termed autophagy, to survive starvation conditions. The vacuole or lysosome mediates the turnover and recycling of non-essential intracellular material for re-use in critical biosynthetic reactions. ATG2 (also known as Apg2) is required for the formation and/or completion of cytosolic sequestering vesicles that are needed for vacuolar import through both the Cvt pathway and autophagy, as well as for the specific degradation of peroxisomes. ATG2 is a peripheral membrane protein that localises to the previously identified perivacuolar compartment that contains Apg9 [[cite:PUB00035359]].</p> <p>This entry represents the C-terminal domain of ATG2 and related proteins such as VPS13, which contains two to three predicted amphipathic helices (AHs) that anchors these proteins to mitochondria, late endosomes or lipid droplets [[cite:PUB00101955], [cite:PUB00100769], [cite:PUB00100859], [cite:PUB00100863]]. This domain is required for membrane recruitment and localisation [[cite:PUB00101955]].</p>
