RIP3 attenuates the pancreatic damage induced by deletion of ATG7 [PDF]
AbstractInvalidation of pancreatic autophagy entails pancreatic atrophy, endocrine and exocrine insufficiency and pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether depletion of Rip3, which is involved in necroptotic signaling, may attenuate the pancreatic atrophy and pancreatitis resulting from autophagy inhibition.

Characterization of Corneal Defects in ATG7-Deficient Mice. [PDF]
Regulated proteolysis via autophagy is essential for cellular homeostasis, yet the specific role of autophagy-related gene 7 (ATG7) in corneal epithelial maintenance remains unclear. Using a conditional knockout mouse model (Atg7f/f K14Cre+/−), we investigated the impact of ATG7 deficiency on corneal epithelial autophagy, morphology, and vascular ...

Structural Basis of Atg8 Activation by a Homodimeric E1, Atg7 [PDF]
E1 enzymes activate ubiquitin-like proteins and transfer them to cognate E2 enzymes. Atg7, a noncanonical E1, activates two ubiquitin-like proteins, Atg8 and Atg12, and plays a crucial role in autophagy. Here, we report crystal structures of full-length Atg7 and its C-terminal domain bound to Atg8 and MgATP, as well as a solution structure of Atg8 ...

A short isoform of ATG7 fails to lipidate LC3/GABARAP [PDF]
AbstractAutophagy is a degradation pathway important for cellular homeostasis. The E1-like enzyme ATG7 is a key component of the autophagy machinery, with the main function of mediating the lipidation of LC3/GABARAP during autophagosome formation. By analysing mRNA-sequencing data we found that in addition to the full-length ATG7 isoform, various ...

Developmental Consequences of Defective ATG7-Mediated Autophagy in Humans
Autophagy is the major intracellular degradation route in mammalian cells. Systemic ablation of core autophagy-related (ATG) genes in mice leads to embryonic or perinatal lethality, and conditional models show neurodegeneration. Impaired autophagy has been associated with a range of complex human diseases, yet congenital autophagy disorders are rare.We

ATG7 immunohistochemical expression in malignant pleural mesothelioma. A preliminary report.
Literature evidence has demonstrated a high incidence of asbestos-related malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) in a Sicilian town (Biancavilla, Italy), where fluoro-edenite (FE) fibers were discovered some decades ago. As ATG7 immunohistochemical analysis has been ascribed as a prognostic tool of improved survival, we decided to investigate, in MPM ...

Lysosome Dysfunction Triggers Atg7-dependent Neural Apoptosis [PDF]
Macroautophagy (autophagy) is a process wherein bulk cytosolic proteins and damaged organelles are sequestered and degraded via the lysosome. Alterations in autophagy-associated proteins have been shown to cause neural tube closure defects, neurodegeneration, and tumor formation.
