Scientific Background: ATG4C (Cysteine protease ATG4C) is a cysteine protease of the peptidase C54 family. It is required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and for autophagy. It is not essential for autophagy development under normal conditions but is required for a proper autophagic response under stressful conditions such as prolonged starvation. It 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. It also exhibits an activity of delipidating enzyme for the PE-conjugated forms. It is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, heart, liver and testis.
