Plays a role in mitophagy which contributes to regulate mitochondrial quantity and quality by eliminating the mitochondria to a basal level to fulfill cellular energy requirements and preventing excess ROS production. 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}. |APG12| |Atg8| |cellular response to nitrogen levels| |cellular response to nitrogen starvation| |autophagosome membrane| |autophagosome maturation| |autophagy of mitochondrion| |mitochondrion disassembly| |autophagosome assembly| |organelle disassembly| |autophagosome organization| |autophagosome| |endomembrane system| |vacuole organization| |cellular response to starvation| |macroautophagy| |response to starvation| |cellular response to nutrient levels| |microtubule binding| |protein-containing complex disassembly| |cytoplasmic vesicle| |process utilizing autophagic mechanism| |autophagy| |cellular response to extracellular stimulus| |ubiquitin protein ligase binding| |microtubule| |cellular response to external stimulus| |cellular component disassembly| |mitochondrion organization| |response to nutrient levels| |response to extracellular stimulus| |organelle assembly| |cellular response to stress| |cellular catabolic process| |protein-containing complex subunit organization| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
