[5] Pacer has been shown to increase cellular autophagy through regulation of PI3KC3.

[6] Pacer contains a Rubicon homology (RH) domain at its C-terminus, which mediates binding to small GTPase Rab7 when Rab7 is phosphorylated following mitochondrial damage.

[9] Whereas Pacer appears to upregulate autophagic activity, Rubicon is a negative regulator of autophagy.
