Reconstitution reveals Ykt6 as the autophagosomal SNARE in autophagosome–vacuole fusion [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2018 Autophagy mediates the bulk degradation of cytoplasmic material, particularly during starvation. Upon the induction of autophagy, autophagosomes form a sealed membrane around cargo, fuse with a lytic compartment, and release the cargo for degradation.

The intricate dance: host autophagy and Coxiella burnetii infection
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Q fever is a zoonotic disease caused by Coxiella burnetii, an obligatory intracellular bacterial pathogen. Like other intracellular pathogens, C. burnetii is able to survive and reproduce within host cells by manipulating host cellular processes.

Accumulation of autophagosomes confers cytotoxicity [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2017 Autophagy comprises the processes of autophagosome synthesis and lysosomal degradation. In certain stress conditions, increased autophagosome synthesis may be associated with decreased lysosomal activity, which may result in reduced processing of the excessive autophagosomes by the rate-limiting lysosomal activity. Thus, the excessive autophagosomes in

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
