FYCO1 preferably interacts with the ATG8 homologues LC3A and -B. A, GST pulldown assays to analyze binding of an in vitro translated GFP-tagged peptide spanning FYCO1 residues 1276–1294 (upper panel) and full-length Myc-tagged FYCO1 (lower panel) against recombinant human GST-ATG8 family members. The immobilized GST fusion proteins used are displayed on the Coomassie Brilliant Blue-stained gels (CBB) below the autoradiographs. B, immunoprecipitation of GFP-tagged human ATG8 proteins co-expressed with Myc-FYCO1 or Myc-FYCO1 LIR point mutant (LIRmut) in human HEK293 cells. Myc-tagged full-length FYCO1 was immunoprecipitated (IP) with Myc antibodies. The inputs of the various GFP-tagged ATG8 proteins (lower panel), the expression level and precipitated Myc-FYCO1 (middle panels), and the co-precipitated GFP-ATG8 proteins (upper panel) were analyzed by Western blotting (WB) using the indicated anti-GFP and anti-Myc antibodies. C, endogenous FYCO1 and LC3 co-localize in puncta in HeLa cells (FM; full medium).
