Supplementary information

ATG7 also known as Autophagy Related 7 is an essential protein involved in the autophagy process. It functions as an E1-like enzyme activating and transferring ubiquitin-like proteins such as ATG12 and LC3. The molecular weight of ATG7 is approximately 78 kDa. It is widely expressed in various tissues although expression levels can differ. One can detect ATG7 using immunoassays like ELISA or antibodies specifically targeting ATG7. Understanding its mechanical role is key to studying cellular homeostasis.
Biological function summary

ATG7 plays a significant role in autophagy a cellular degradation pathway critical for cell survival under stress. ATG7 contributes to the formation of autophagosomes by facilitating conjugation of ATG8 family proteins including LC3 to phosphatidylethanolamine. It acts within complexes that regulate cellular energy balance and stress responses ensuring cells maintain their function and integrity. Knockdown of ATG7 can impair autophagic flux highlighting its importance in maintaining cellular processes.

Pathways

ATG7 is a central player in the autophagy pathway influencing cellular metabolism and turnover. It interacts closely with ATG5 and ATG12 in this pathway to form a conjugation system essential for autophagosome elongation. Additionally ATG7 is involved in the mTOR signaling pathway which regulates nutrient sensing and cellular growth. Interaction with proteins like mTOR allows ATG7 to integrate signals from nutrient availability and stress responses finely tuning the autophagy process.

ATG7 dysfunction has connections to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Abnormal ATG7 activity disrupts autophagic balance possibly leading to the accumulation of damaged proteins and organelles contributing to disease progression. In cancer altered ATG7 expression may influence tumor survival by affecting cellular stress responses. Proteins such as p53 involved in cell cycle regulation often show association with ATG7-related pathways indicating a complex network influencing disease states. Understanding ATG7's role in these conditions can help explore potential therapeutic strategies.

Target data

E1-like activating enzyme involved in the 2 ubiquitin-like systems required for cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy. Activates ATG12 for its conjugation with ATG5 and ATG8 for its conjugation with phosphatidylethanolamine. Both systems are needed for the ATG8 association to Cvt vesicles and autophagosomes. Involved in the senescence process (PubMed : 12070171). Involved in the degradation of damaged peroxisomes (PubMed : 24368788). Involved in the non-selective degradation of chlorophylls and photosynthetic proteins during stress-induced leaf yellowing (PubMed : 24510943).
