Macroautophagy, a major degradation pathway of cytoplasmic components, is carried out through formation of a double-membrane structure, the autophagosome. Although the involvement of specific lipid species in the formation process remains largely obscure,

Golgi-Resident GTPase Rab30 Promotes the Biogenesis of Pathogen-Containing Autophagosomes. [PDF]
Autophagy acts as a host-defense system against pathogenic microorganisms such as Group A Streptococcus (GAS). Autophagy is a membrane-mediated degradation system that is regulated by intracellular membrane trafficking regulators, including small GTPase ...

Origin of the Autophagosomal Membrane in Plants
During autophagy, cargo molecules destined for degradation are sequestrated into a double membrane structure called autophagosome, which subsequently fuses with the vacuole.

Nlp promotes autophagy through facilitating the interaction of Rab7 and FYCO1
Autophagy is the main degradation pathway to eliminate long-lived and aggregated proteins, aged or malfunctioning organelles, which is essential for the intracellular homeostasis and prevention of malignant transformation.

ATG5 is essential for ATG8-dependent autophagy and mitochondrial homeostasis in Leishmania major [PDF]
Macroautophagy has been shown to be important for the cellular remodelling required for Leishmania differentiation. We now demonstrate that L. major contains a functional ATG12-ATG5 conjugation system, which is required for ATG8-dependent autophagosome ...

Autophagosome formation machinery.
(1) The initiation of autophagosome formation requires the activation of the ULK complex (composed of ULK1/2 (unc-51-like kinases 1 and 2), ATG13, ATG101, and FIP200 (also known as RB1CC1)), which further activates ATG13 inducing its translocation to the

A growing body of evidence suggests that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) critically contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. However, the detailed mechanism of how NETs promote atherogenesis remains unknown.

Summary Autophagy is a conserved intracellular degradation pathway exerting various cytoprotective and homeostatic functions by using de novo double-membrane vesicle (autophagosome) formation to target a wide range of cytoplasmic material for vacuolar ...

Viruses can hijack autophagosomes as the nonlytic release vehicles in cultured host cells. However, how autophagosome-mediated viral spread occurs in infected host tissues or organs in vivo remains poorly understood.

The class III PI(3)K Vps34 promotes autophagy and endocytosis but not TOR signaling in Drosophila [PDF]
Degradation of cytoplasmic components by autophagy requires the class III phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI(3)) – kinase Vps34, but the mechanisms by which this kinase and its lipid product PI(3) phosphate (PI(3)P) promote autophagy are unclear.
