“…It should be noted that the major biological activities of ATG8 proteins depend on their membrane-bound state, as detailed in section "Interaction of ATG8 Family Members With Autophagic Membranes." The dramatic decrease in solubility of lipidconjugated ATG8 proteins challenges experimental techniques, so the majority of the biophysical studies in solution has been carried out on the non-lipidated forms (Stangler et al, 2002;Kouno et al, 2005;Kumeta et al, 2010;Schwarten et al, 2010;Klionsky et al, 2012;Rogov et al, 2013;Ma et al, 2015;Krichel et al, 2019). This is also true for the studies performed in silico with modeling and simulations (Ma et al, 2015;Di Rita et al, 2018;Holdgaard et al, 2019;Jatana et al, 2019).…”
