Function	Plays a central role in autophagy (PubMed:23184933). Required for the abcission step in cytokinesis (PubMed:20208530). Protects against infection by a neurovirulent strain of Sindbis virus (PubMed:9765397). May play a role in antiviral host defense. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20208530, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23184933, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9765397}.
Subcellular Location	Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O88597}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19050071}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19050071}. Endosome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878393}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878393}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878393}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878393}. Mitochondrion membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878393}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23878393}. Note=Interaction with ATG14 promotes translocation to autophagosomes. Expressed in dendrites and cell bodies of cerebellar Purkinje cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O88597, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19050071}.
