| Function |
Ubiquitin-like modifier involved in formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes). Whereas LC3s are involved in elongation of the phagophore membrane, the GABARAP/GATE-16 subfamily is essential for a later stage in autophagosome maturation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Endomembrane system; Lipid-anchor. Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome membrane {ECO:0000250}; Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000250}. Note=LC3-II binds to the autophagic membranes. {ECO:0000250}.
