PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	autophagocytosis associated protein, C-terminal domain
	importance of two sulfhydryl groups on Cys44 and Cys135 in ATG10 protein

secondary structure

mutation or loss of Cys44 or/and Cys135 made ATG10 steric conformational change toward a ATG10S-like structure, rather than old disulfide bonds were disrupted and new ones reformed, leading to the similar ATG10S functions

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	extracellular
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
	intracellular,nucleus

basic FUNCTION	play an important role in the invasion and proliferation of cancer cells, and bacterial infections
	might act as a latent transcription factor after losing its -SH group on Cys44 and/or Cys135
	is essential for autophagy since it promotes ATG5-ATG12 complex formation

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

text	may be involved in ubiquitin cycle and protein transport

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

native ATG10 protein generally exists as an oligomer manner in the autophagy process

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	ATG10 interacts with ATG7 to receive an ubiquitin-like protein ATG12, recognizes both ATG12 and ATG5 directly and catalyzes their conjugation reaction
	autophagic E2 enzymes, ATG10, interacts with ATG7 to receive ATG12, a ubiquitin-like molecule, and is also involved in the ATG12-ATG5 conjugation reaction
	ATG10S as a transcription factor competes with IRF1 for the same binding site to promote IFNL2 gene transcription
