Autophagy is a catabolic process for the autophagosomic-lysosomal degradation of bulk cytoplasmic contents. Control of autophagy was largely discovered in yeast and involves proteins encoded by a set of autophagy-related genes (Atg). Formation of autophagic vesicles requires a pair of essential ubiquitin-like conjugation systems, Atg12-Atg5 and Atg8-phosphatidylethanolamine (Atg8-PE), which are widely conserved in eukaryotes. Numerous mammalian counterparts to yeast Atg proteins have been described, including three Atg8 proteins (GATE-16, GABARAP, and LC3) and four Atg4 homologs (Atg4A/autophagin-2, Atg4B/autophagin-1, Atg4C/autophagin-3, and Atg4D/autophagin-4).

ATG4A (autophagy related 4A cysteine peptidase), also called cysteine protease ATG4A or autophagin-2, is an ATG4-family cysteine protease that regulates ATG8-family protein processing during macroautophagy.
Biological function: ATG4A is a peptidase family C54 cysteine protease involved in the proteolytic processing of ATG8-family proteins. ATG4-family enzymes expose the C-terminal glycine needed for ATG8 lipidation and can reverse lipidation, helping regulate autophagosome membrane dynamics and autophagic flux.
