Multiple Functions of ATG8 Family Proteins in Plant Autophagy
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Autophagy is a major degradation process of cytoplasmic components in eukaryotes, and executes both bulk and selective degradation of targeted cargos.

Atg8-Family Proteins—Structural Features and Molecular Interactions in Autophagy and Beyond
Cells, 2020 Autophagy is a common name for a number of catabolic processes, which keep the cellular homeostasis by removing damaged and dysfunctional intracellular components.

Atg8ylation as a general membrane stress and remodeling response
Cell Stress, 2021 The yeast Atg8 protein and its paralogs in mammals, mammalian Atg8s (mAtg8s), have been primarily appreciated for their participation in autophagy. However, lipidated mAtg8s, including the most frequently used autophagosomal membrane marker LC3B, are ...

Dissecting the function of Atg1 complex in Dictyostelium autophagy reveals a connection with the pentose phosphate pathway enzyme transketolase [PDF]
Open Biology, 2015 The network of protein–protein interactions of the Dictyostelium discoideum autophagy pathway was investigated by yeast two-hybrid screening of the conserved autophagic proteins Atg1 and Atg8.

Atg4 plays an important role in efficient expansion of autophagic isolation membranes by cleaving lipidated Atg8 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Autophagy, an intracellular degradation system, is highly conserved among eukaryotes from yeast to mammalian cells. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, most Atg (autophagy-related) proteins, which are essential for autophagosome formation, are ...

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Autophagy is one of the bulk degradation systems and is conserved throughout eukaryotes. In the enteric protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica, the causative agent of human amebiasis, Atg8 is not exclusively involved in autophagy per se but also in ...

Autophagy Reports, 2023 There are two types of autophagy, non-selective (bulk) autophagy, in which substrates are randomly incorporated into autophagosomes, and selective autophagy, in which substrates are specifically targeted.

Atg8 family proteins, LIR/AIM motifs and other interaction modes
Autophagy Reports, 2023 The Atg8 family of ubiquitin-like proteins play pivotal roles in autophagy and other processes involving vesicle fusion and transport where the lysosome/vacuole is the end station. Nuclear roles of Atg8 proteins are also emerging.
