has part protein targeting to vacuole vacuolar protein processing cytoplasm to vacuole targeting by the Cvt pathway https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/issues/26697 GO:0032258 A cytoplasm to vacuole targeting pathway that uses machinery common with autophagy. The Cvt vesicle is formed when the receptor protein, Atg19, binds to the complexes of the target protein (aminopeptidase or alpha-mannosidase homododecamers), forming the Cvt complex. Atg11 binds to Atg9 and transports the Cvt complex to the pre-autophagosome (PAS). The phagophore membrane expands around the Cvt complex (excluding bulk cytoplasm) forming the Cvt vesicle. This pathway is mostly observed in yeast. biological_process process utilizing autophagic mechanism
