CC -!- FUNCTION: Cysteine protease that plays a key role in autophagy by
CC mediating both proteolytic activation and delipidation of ATG8 family
CC proteins. The protease activity is required for proteolytic activation
CC of ATG8 family proteins: cleaves the C-terminal amino acid of ATG8
CC proteins to reveal a C-terminal glycine (By similarity). Exposure of
CC the glycine at the C-terminus is essential for ATG8 proteins
CC conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and insertion to
CC membranes, which is necessary for autophagy. In addition to the
CC protease activity, also mediates delipidation of PE-conjugated ATG8
CC proteins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q2XPP4,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9Y4P1}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=[protein]-C-terminal L-amino acid-glycyl-
CC phosphatidylethanolamide + H2O = [protein]-C-terminal L-amino acid-
CC glycine + a 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine;
