NCIt definition : Microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3-I (LC3-I) are cytoplasmic products
of the autophagy-dependent processing of microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light
chain 3 family proteins (LC3) by cysteine protease ATG4B. As autophagy progresses
LC3-I is further cleaved and processed via the conjugation of a phospholipid anchor
to form the membrane localized LC3-II.;
