Structural highlights
Function
AT12B_ARATH Ubiquitin-like protein involved in cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy vesicles formation. Conjugation with ATG5 through a ubiquitin-like conjugating system involving also ATG7 as an E1-like activating enzyme and ATG10 as an E2-like conjugating enzyme, is essential for its function. ATG12/ATG5 conjugate has an essential role in plant nutrient recycling.
