Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Atg21p
Description	Phosphoinositide binding protein; required for vesicle formation in the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (CVT) pathway, autophagy, micronucleophagy and mitophagy; binds to several phosphoinositides including: PtdIns(3,5)P2, PI3P and PI4P; involved in PI3P-dependent recruitment and organization of both the Atg12-Atg5-Atg16 complex and Atg8p at the pre-autophagosomal structure; necessary for oxidant-induced cell death; WD-40 repeat containing PROPPIN family member
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 3: cytoplasm to vacuole targeting by the Cvt pathway level 4: macroautophagy level 4: autophagy of mitochondrion level 4: protein localization to phagophore assembly site level 5: glycophagy level 5: vesicle organization level 5: pexophagy level 5: piecemeal microautophagy of the nucleus level 5: nucleophagy level 6: protein lipidation
