ATG4B, also known as Autophagin-1 or cysteine protease ATG4B, is a key enzyme in the autophagy pathway, a conserved cellular process responsible for degrading and recycling damaged organelles, misfolded proteins, and pathogens. As a member of the ATG4 cysteine protease family, it plays a critical role in processing microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3), a central component of autophagosome formation. Specifically, ATG4B cleaves the C-terminal region of pro-LC3 to generate LC3-I, which is subsequently conjugated to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) on autophagosomal membranes (forming LC3-II). This lipidated form of LC3 enables autophagosome expansion and cargo recruitment. Additionally, ATG4B mediates the delipidation of LC3-II during late-stage autophagy, recycling LC3 for subsequent rounds of autophagosome formation.
Recombinant ATG4B protein is produced using expression systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cell lines, followed by purification to ensure high activity and specificity. Its structural features include a catalytic domain with conserved cysteine and histidine residues essential for protease activity, as well as regulatory regions influencing substrate recognition. Studies using recombinant ATG4B have advanced the understanding of autophagy dynamics, substrate specificity, and regulatory mechanisms. Dysregulation of ATG4B has been linked to diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders (e.g., Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s), and metabolic syndromes, making it a potential therapeutic target. Inhibitors or activators of ATG4B are being explored to modulate autophagy in disease contexts. Furthermore, recombinant ATG4B serves as a vital tool for *in vitro* assays, drug screening, and structural studies to elucidate its interaction with LC3 homologs and other autophagy-related proteins. Its biochemical characterization continues to uncover novel roles in cellular stress responses and homeostasis.
