ID A2A6M5; PN Calcium-binding and coiled-coil domain-containing protein 2; GN Calcoco2; OS 10090; SL Nucleus Position: SL-0198; SL Comments: Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q13137}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q13137}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q13137}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. DR UNIPROT: A2A6M5; DR UNIPROT: Q3TK36; DR UNIPROT: Q3TKZ6; DR UNIPROT: Q3TL30; DR UNIPROT: Q9CWE3; DR Pfam: PF17751; DE Function: Xenophagy-specific receptor required for autophagy-mediated intracellular bacteria degradation (By similarity). Acts as an effector protein of galectin-sensed membrane damage that restricts the proliferation of infecting pathogens upon entry into the cytosol by targeting LGALS8-associated bacteria for autophagy (By similarity). Initially orchestrates bacteria targeting to autophagosomes and subsequently ensures pathogen degradation by regulating pathogen- containing autophagosome maturation (By similarity). Bacteria targeting to autophagosomes relies on its interaction with MAP1LC3A, MAP1LC3B and/or GABARAPL2, whereas regulation of pathogen-containing autophagosome maturation requires the interaction with MAP3LC3C (By similarity). May play a role in ruffle formation and actin cytoskeleton organization and seems to negatively regulate constitutive secretion (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q13137}.
