Summary Autophagy is a highly regulated bulk degradation process that plays an important role in cellular maintenance and development. MAP1LC3C is an ortholog of the yeast autophagosome protein Atg8 (He et al., 2003 [PubMed 12740394]).[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2010]

Protein name Microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 gamma (Autophagy-related protein LC3 C) (Autophagy-related ubiquitin-like modifier LC3 C) (MAP1 light chain 3-like protein 3) (Microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3C) (MAP1A/MAP1B LC3 C) (MAP1A/
Protein function Ubiquitin-like modifier that plays a crucial role in antibacterial autophagy (xenophagy) through the selective binding of CALCOCO2 (PubMed:23022382). Recruits all ATG8 family members to infecting bacteria such as S.typhimurium (PubMed:23022382).
