The functions of Atg8-family proteins in autophagy and cancer: linked or unrelated?

Abstract:

:The Atg8-family proteins are subdivided into two subfamilies: the GABARAP and LC3 subfamilies. These proteins, which are major players of the autophagy pathway, present a conserved glycine in their C-terminus necessary for their association to the autophagosome membrane. This family of proteins present multiple roles from autophagy induction to autophagosome-lysosome fusion and have been described to play a role during cancer progression. Indeed, GABARAPs are described to be downregulated in cancers, and high expression has been linked to a good prognosis. Regarding LC3 s, their expression does not correlate to a particular tumor type or stage. The involvement of Atg8-family proteins during cancer, therefore, remains unclear, and it appears that their anti-tumor role may be associated with their implication in selective protein degradation by autophagy but might also be independent, in some cases, of their conjugation to autophagosomes. In this review, we will then focus on the involvement of GABARAP and LC3 subfamilies during autophagy and cancer and highlight the similarities but also the differences of action of each subfamily member.Abbreviations: AIM: Atg8-interacting motif; AMPK: adenosine monophosphate-associated protein kinase; ATG: autophagy-related; BECN1: beclin 1; BIRC6/BRUCE: baculoviral IAP repeat containing 6; BNIP3L/NIX: BCL2 interacting protein 3 like; GABARAP: GABA type A receptor-associated protein; GABARAPL1/2: GABA type A receptor associated protein like 1/2; GABRA/GABAA: gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit; LAP: LC3-associated phagocytosis; LMNB1: lamin B1; MAP1LC3/LC3: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3; MTOR: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; PI4K2A/PI4KIIα: phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase type 2 alpha; PLEKHM1: plecktrin homology and RUN domain containing M1; PtdIns3K-C1: class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex 1; SQSTM1: sequestosome 1; ULK1: unc51-like autophagy activating kinase 1.
