Background Information
WIPI1, or WD repeat domain, phosphoinositide-interacting protein 1, is a member of the WD40 repeat family of proteins, which are key components of many essential biological functions. WIPI1 is involved in the regulation of autophagy, a cellular process critical for maintaining cellular integrity and recycling intracellular proteins, lipids, and organelles. WIPI1 is characterized by its 7-bladed β-propeller structure and contains a conserved motif for interaction with phospholipids, specifically binding to phosphoinositides. This interaction is crucial for its function in autophagy, where it acts as an effector of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns3P). WIPI1 and WIPI2 are among the first proteins to be recruited during autophagy, with WIPI2 interacting with components of the ULK1/2 complex and PtdIns3P, tethering the phagophore to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). WIPI1 supports the function of WIPI2 in recruiting the ATG16L complex, which is essential for LC3 lipidation and autophagosome formation.
