Autophagy is classified into nonselective and selective autophagy, depending on the specificity of substrate degradation. In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae, selective autophagy, which includes pexophagy and mitophagy, has been observed. However, the molecular mechanism underlying selective autophagy in filamentous fungi remains unclear. Here, we identified a novel protein that interacts with the autophagy-related protein Atg8 in A. oryzae, named AoAtg8-interacting protein A (AeiA). AeiA was localized to AoAtg8-positive autophagic membrane structures and peroxisomes. Moreover, peroxisomal trafficking into the vacuole was reduced in AeiA disruptants. Taken together, AeiA is a novel selective autophagy-related protein that contributes to pexophagy in A. oryzae.
