Protein attributes

Sequence length	698 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Functions as an E1 enzyme essential for multisubstrates such as GABARAPL1 and ATG12. Forms intermediate conjugates with GABARAPL1 (GABARAPL2, GABARAP or MAP1ALC3). Formation of the final GABARAPL1-PE conjugate is essential for autophagy By similarity.
Subunit structure	Homodimer. Interacts with ATG3 and ATG12. The complex, composed of APG3L and APG7L, plays a role in the conjugation of ATG12 to ATG5 By similarity.
Subcellular location	CytoplasmProbable.
Tissue specificity	Widely expressed.
Domain	The C-terminal part of the protein is essential for the dimerization and interaction with ATG3 and ATG12 By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the ATG7 family.
