Function | Cysteine protease required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy. Is not essential for autophagy development under normal conditions but is required for a proper autophagic response under stressful conditions such as prolonged starvation (By similarity). 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. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21177865}. |
Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. |
Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in skeletal muscle, heart, liver and testis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12446702}. |
