TMEM59 localizations

TMEM59 [ENSP00000234831]

Transmembrane protein 59; Acts as a regulator of autophagy in response to S.aureus infection by promoting activation of LC3 (MAP1LC3A, MAP1LC3B or MAP1LC3C). Acts by interacting with ATG16L1, leading to promote a functional complex between LC3 and ATG16L1 and promoting LC3 lipidation and subsequent activation of autophagy (PubMed:27273576, PubMed:23376921). Modulates the O-glycosylation and complex N- glycosylation steps occurring during the Golgi maturation of several proteins such as APP, BACE1, SEAP or PRNP . Inhibits APP transport to the cell surface and further shedding ; Belongs to the TMEM59 family.
