Cysteine protease required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt) and autophagy.
Is not essential for autophagy development under normal conditions but is required for a proper autophagic response under stressful conditions such as prolonged starvation (By similarity).
Cleaves the C-terminal amino acid of ATG8 family proteins MAP1LC3 and GABARAPL2, to reveal a C-terminal glycine.
Exposure of the glycine at the C-terminal is essential for ATG8 proteins conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and insertion to membranes, which is necessary for autophagy.
Has also an activity of delipidating enzyme for the PE-conjugated forms.
