ncbi summary :
Autophagy is the process by which endogenous proteins and damaged organelles are destroyed intracellularly. Autophagy is postulated to be essential for cell homeostasis and cell remodeling during differentiation, metamorphosis, non-apoptotic cell death, and aging. Reduced levels of autophagy have been described in some malignant tumors, and a role for autophagy in controlling the unregulated cell growth linked to cancer has been proposed. This gene encodes a member of the autophagin protein family. The encoded protein is also designated as a member of the C-54 family of cysteine proteases. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
ATG4B: Cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the C-terminal part of either MAP1LC3, GABARAPL2 or GABARAP, allowing the liberation of form I. A subpopulation of form I is subsequently converted to a smaller form (form II). Form II, with a revealed C-terminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes. Mainly expressed in the skeletal muscle, followed by brain, heart, liver and pancreas. Inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide. Belongs to the peptidase C54 family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Protease; EC 3.4.22.-; Autophagy; Ubiquitin conjugating system. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 2q37.3. Cellular Component: cytoplasm; cytosol. Molecular Function: protein binding; cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; endopeptidase activity; cysteine-type peptidase activity. Biological Process: protein delipidation; positive regulation of protein catabolic process; mitochondrion degradation; autophagy; protein processing; C-terminal protein lipidation; proteolysis; protein targeting to membrane; positive regulation of autophagy; cellular response to nitrogen starvation; autophagic vacuole formation
