CC -!- FUNCTION: Adapter protein that connects P-granules in somatic cells
CC with the autophagic machinery (PubMed:19377305, PubMed:19372764,
CC PubMed:19167332, PubMed:24140420). Association with other adapters such
CC as epg-2 and P-granule components such as pgl-3 is required for the
CC accumulation and degradation of P-granules by autophagy in somatic
CC cells (PubMed:19372764, PubMed:19167332, PubMed:24140420,
CC PubMed:28806108). This ensures exclusive localization of the P-granules
CC in germ cells (PubMed:19372764, PubMed:19167332, PubMed:24140420,
CC PubMed:28806108). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332,

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:24140420, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28806108}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Self-associates (PubMed:19167332). Interacts (via the LIR
CC motifs) with lgg-1; the interaction is direct (PubMed:19167332,
CC PubMed:26687600). Interacts (via the LIR motifs) with lgg-2; the
CC interaction is direct (PubMed:26687600). Interacts with pgl-3;
CC interaction is enhanced in the presence of RNA (PubMed:19167332,
CC PubMed:24140420). Interacts with epg-2; may be modulated by prmt-1
CC (PubMed:24140420, PubMed:28806108). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332,

CC Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19372764,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21802374, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24140420}. Cytoplasmic
CC granule {ECO:0000305|PubMed:19167332}. Note=Diffuse cytoplasmic
CC localization, but also localized to cytoplasmic aggregates throughout
CC development (PubMed:19167332, PubMed:21802374). Co-localizes with epg-2
CC and lgg-1 in cytoplasmic aggregates (PubMed:19167332, PubMed:24140420).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21802374,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:24140420}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: First expressed in 16-cell stage embryos
CC (PubMed:19167332). Temporal expression during embryogenesis with high
CC expression as embryos develop into 100-stage embryos, but with low
CC expression in most cells at the comma stage and almost diminished
CC expression at the 2-fold stage of embryogenesis (PubMed:19377305,
CC PubMed:19167332, PubMed:21802374, PubMed:24140420). Expressed in the
CC head, tail and intestine, especially in the anterior and posterior
CC intestinal cells, of larvae (PubMed:19167332).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19377305,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21802374, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24140420}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The LIR motifs (LC3-interacting region) are required for its
CC interaction with lgg-1 and lgg-2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26687600}.
CC -!- PTM: Degraded by autophagy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: RNAi-mediated knockdown results in the
CC accumulation of cytoplasmic aggregates containing the P-granule
CC component pgl-3 (PubMed:24140420). RNAi-mediated knockdown results in
CC the disrupted formation of P-granules in an atg-18 autophagy mutant
CC background (PubMed:19167332). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167332,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:24140420}.
