Ubiquilin functions in autophagy and is degraded by chaperone-mediated autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2010
Autophagy is the process by which organelles and portions of the cytoplasm are degraded in lysosomes. Several different forms of autophagy are known that are distinguishable chiefly by the mode in which cargo is delivered to the lysosome for degradation.

Neuroprotective effects of chaperone-mediated autophagy in neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Chaperone-mediated autophagy is one of three types of autophagy and is characterized by the selective degradation of proteins. Chaperone-mediated autophagy contributes to energy balance and helps maintain cellular homeostasis, while providing nutrients ...

Chaperone-mediated autophagy: roles in disease and aging [PDF]

open access: yesCell Research, 2013
This review focuses on chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), one of the proteolytic systems that contributes to degradation of intracellular proteins in lysosomes. CMA substrate proteins are selectively targeted to lysosomes and translocated into the lysosomal lumen through the coordinated action of chaperones located at both sides of the membrane and a ...

The oncolytic avian reovirus p17 protein triggers chaperone-mediated autophagy by modulating Hsp90 and the T-complex protein-1 ring complex chaperones and co-chaperones to activate the IKK/NF-κB signaling

open access: yesJournal of Virology
This study is the first to reveal that oncolytic avian reovirus (ARV) modulates the IKK/NF-κB signaling through the Hsp90-Cdc37, T-complex protein-1 ring complex (TRiC)/Hsc70, and TRiC-phosducin-like protein 1 (PhLP1) chaperone complexes, thereby ...

Constitutive silencing of LRRK2 kinase activity leads to early glucocerebrosidase deregulation and late impairment of autophagy in vivo

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2021
Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are associated with Parkinson's disease. LRRK2 modulates the autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP), a clearance process subserving the quality control of cellular proteins and organelles.

Mechanisms of autophagy and their implications in dermatological disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular self-digestive process that underlies the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Autophagy is classified into three types: macrophage, chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) and microphagy, which maintain cellular ...

The complexity in regulation of MEF2D by chaperone-mediated autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2009
Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) targets specific cytoplasmic proteins for degradation by lysosomes and has been implicated to play a role in neurodegeneration. Our recent studies identify neuronal survival factor MEF2D as a direct substrate of CMA and show that dysregulation of this process may contribute to the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease ...

Autophagy in T Cell Function and Aging

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
Dysregulation of autophagy with age has been identified as a central mechanism of aging affecting many cells and tissues. T cells do also show decreased activity with age of different autophagic pathways. Here, we will review the current knowledge of the

The Mitochondrial Chaperone Protein TRAP1 Mitigates α-Synuclein Toxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Overexpression or mutation of alpha-Synuclein is associated with protein aggregation and interferes with a number of cellular processes, including mitochondrial integrity and function.

Selective Degradation of Annexins by Chaperone-mediated Autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
Annexins are a family of proteins that bind phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner. Analysis of the sequences of the different members of the annexin family revealed the presence of a pentapeptide biochemically related to KFERQ in some annexins but not in others.
