Autophagy101 (Atg101) is a mammalian Autophagy13 (Atg13) binding protein essential for autophagy. Atg13 forms a stable complex with ULK1 (Serine/threonine-protein kinase ULK1) and FIP200 (FAK family kinase-interacting protein of 200 kDa). Atg101 associates with the ULK1-Atg13- FIP200 complex through direct interaction with Atg13. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) interacts with the ULK1-Atg13-FIP200 complex in a nutrient dependent manner, suggesting that mTOR regulates autophagy through this complex.
