Autophagy is activated and involved in cell death with participation of cathepsins during stress-induced microspore embryogenesis in barley [PDF]
, 2018 Microspores are reprogrammed towards embryogenesis by stress. Many microspores die after this stress, limiting the efficiency of microspore embryogenesis. Autophagy is a degradation pathway that plays critical roles in stress response and cell death.

OATL1, a novel autophagosome-resident Rab33B-GAP, regulates autophagosomal maturation [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2011 Macroautophagy is a bulk degradation system conserved in all eukaryotic cells. A ubiquitin-like protein, Atg8, and its homologues are essential for autophagosome formation and act as a landmark for selective autophagy of aggregated proteins and damaged organelles.

Connexins : substrates and regulators of autophagy [PDF]
, 2016 Connexins mediate intercellular communication by assembling into hexameric channel complexes that act as hemichannels and gap junction channels. Most connexins are characterized by a very rapid turn-over in a variety of cell systems.

Microtubules Facilitate Autophagosome Formation and Fusion of Autophagosomes with Endosomes [PDF]
Traffic, 2005 Nutrient deprivation of eukaryotic cells provokes a variety of stress responses, including autophagy. Autophagy is carried out by autophagosomes which sequester cytosolic components and organelles for degradation after fusion with protease‐containing endosomes.

Organization of the Pre-autophagosomal Structure Responsible for Autophagosome Formation [PDF]
Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2008 Autophagy induced by nutrient depletion is involved in survival during starvation conditions. In addition to starvation-induced autophagy, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae also has a constitutive autophagy-like system, the Cvt pathway. Among 31 autophagy-related (Atg) proteins, the function of Atg17, Atg29, and Atg31 is required specifically for ...

The multifunctional autophagy pathway in the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]
, 2013 Autophagy is a catabolic pathway typically induced by nutrient starvation to recycle amino acids, but can also function in removing damaged organelles. In addition, this pathway plays a key role in eukaryotic development. To date, not much is known about

Connexins modulate autophagosome biogenesis [PDF]
Nature Cell Biology, 2014 The plasma membrane contributes to the formation of autophagosomes, the double-membrane vesicles that sequester cytosolic cargo and deliver it to lysosomes for degradation during autophagy. In this study, we have identified a regulatory role for connexins (Cx), the main components of plasma membrane gap junctions, in autophagosome formation.
