== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ATG4B_HUMAN ATG4B_HUMAN] Cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the C-terminal part of MAP1LC3, GABARAPL1, GABARAPL2 and GABARAP, allowing the liberation of form I. A subpopulation of form I is subsequently converted to a smaller form (form II). Form II, with a revealed C-terminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes. Also mediates the lipid deconjugation required for target recycling.<ref>PMID:15169837</ref> <ref>PMID:19322194</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Atg8 is conjugated to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) by ubiquitin-like conjugation reactions. Atg8 has at least two functions in autophagy: membrane biogenesis and target recognition. Regulation of PE conjugation and deconjugation of Atg8 is crucial for these functions in which Atg4 has a critical function by both processing Atg8 precursors and deconjugating Atg8-PE. Here, we report the crystal structures of catalytically inert human Atg4B (HsAtg4B) in complex with processed and unprocessed forms of LC3, a mammalian orthologue of yeast Atg8. On LC3 binding, the regulatory loop and the N-terminal tail of HsAtg4B undergo large conformational changes. The regulatory loop masking the entrance of the active site of free HsAtg4B is lifted by LC3 Phe119, so that a groove is formed along which the LC3 tail enters the active site. At the same time, the N-terminal tail masking the exit of the active site of HsAtg4B in the free form is detached from the enzyme core and a large flat surface is exposed, which might enable the enzyme to access the membrane-bound LC3-PE.

The structure of Atg4B-LC3 complex reveals the mechanism of LC3 processing and delipidation during autophagy.,Satoo K, Noda NN, Kumeta H, Fujioka Y, Mizushima N, Ohsumi Y, Inagaki F EMBO J. 2009 May 6;28(9):1341-50. Epub 2009 Mar 26. PMID:19322194<ref>PMID:19322194</ref>
