Regulation of autophagy by Beclin 1 in the heart [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 2016
Dysregulation of autophagy in cardiomyocytes is implicated in various heart disease conditions. Beclin 1, a mammalian ortholog of yeast Atg6 and a core component of the autophagy machinery, plays a central role in the regulation of autophagy through activation of Vps34.

The Beclin 1 network regulates autophagy and apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation, 2011
Beclin 1, the mammalian orthologue of yeast Atg6, has a central role in autophagy, a process of programmed cell survival, which is increased during periods of cell stress and extinguished during the cell cycle. It interacts with several cofactors (Atg14L, UVRAG, Bif-1, Rubicon, Ambra1, HMGB1, nPIST, VMP1, SLAM, IP(3)R, PINK and survivin) to regulate ...

BAC-mediated transgenic expression of fluorescent autophagic protein Beclin 1 reveals a role for Beclin 1 in lymphocyte development [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation, 2008
Beclin 1/Atg6 is an essential component of the evolutionary conserved PtdIns(3)-kinase (Vps34) protein complex that regulates macroautophagy (autophagy) in eukaryotic cells and also interacts with antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family members, Bcl-2, and Bcl-x(L).

Beclin-1 and LC3A expression in cutaneous malignant melanomas

Melanoma Research, 2011
Autophagy is an intracellular pathway for the degradation of long-lived proteins and damaged organelles. It is, in essence, a recycling process allowing cells to survive oxygen and nutrient depletion. The expression of two autophagy-related proteins, beclin 1 and light chain 3A (LC3A) was investigated in 79 nodular cutaneous melanomas. The results were

Regulation of macroautophagy by mTOR and Beclin 1 complexes

Biochimie, 2008
Macroautophagy or autophagy is a vacuolar degradative pathway terminating in the lysosomal compartment after forming a cytoplasmic vacuole or autophagosome that engulfs macromolecules and organelles. The original discovery that ATG (AuTophaGy related) genes in yeast are involved in the formation of autophagosomes has greatly increased our knowledge of ...

Beclin 1, Bcl-2 and Autophagy

2019
Beclin 1 is the first mammalian autophagy protein identified as a novel Bcl-2-interacting protein. Subsequent studies have demonstrated that this landmark protein is essential for autophagy. By investigating the interaction between Bcl-2 and Beclin 1, key molecular mechanisms of mammalian autophagy regulation have been discovered.
