Autophagy protein ATG5 is involved in autophagic vesicle formation. It is conjugated with ATG12, acting as an E3-like ubiquitin enzyme required for lipidation of ATG8 family proteins and their association to the vesicle membranes. ATG5 comprises two ubiquitin-like domains (UblA and UblB) that flank a helix-rich domain. This domain represents the alpha-helical bundle region (HBR) of AT5 which consists of three alpha helices [1,2]. This region contains the Lys residue required for conjugation with ATG12 [1].
This is the N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain, termed UblA, from autophagy protein ATG5 [1,2]. ATG5 comprises two ubiquitin-like domains (UblA and UblB) that flank a helix-rich domain (HBR). Both UblA and UblB comprise a five-stranded sheet and two-he ...

ATG5 is directly required for the import of aminopeptidase I via the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting pathway [1]. ATG5 is conjugated to ATG12; this conjugate exhibits E3 ligase-like activity which facilitates the lipidation of members of the LC3 family, and therefore autophagosome formation [2]. ATG5 comprises N- and C-terminal ubiquitin-like domains (UblA and UblB) that flank the helical-rich region (HBR). This is the UblB domain, found at the C-terminal [2,3].
