ER-phagy keeps cells healthy

Science, 2019
Cell Biology In eukaryotic cells, about one-third of all proteins are targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which serves as a hub for secretory protein traffic and quality control. Cui et al. studied a protein known as Lst1 in yeast and SEC24C in mammalian cells that is involved in loading secretory cargo into vesicles that are delivered to the ...

Methods for Monitoring ER-Phagy

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) serves as a central hub for protein synthesis, folding, and lipid biosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. Maintaining ER homeostasis is essential for optimal cellular function, and one mechanism that has garnered attention is endoplasmic reticulum-specific autophagy, or ER-phagy.

Picky Eating at the ER-phagy Buffet

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2019
The degradation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by autophagy (ER-phagy) regulates proteostasis. Two studies (An et al., Mol. Cell, 2019; Chino et al., Mol. Cell, 2019) have uncovered a new ER-phagy molecule, TEX264, yielding insight into how ER is packaged for degradation, and have illuminated the extent of redundancy between different ER-phagy ...

ER-Phagy: Quality Control and Turnover of Endoplasmic Reticulum

Trends in Cell Biology, 2020
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest organelle in cells and has fundamental functions, such as folding, processing, and trafficking of proteins, cellular metabolism, and ion storage. To maintain its function, it is turned over constitutively, and even more actively under certain stress conditions.

ER-phagy in human atherosclerosis: an exploratory ultrastructural study

Ultrastructural Pathology, 2020
Autophagy is a vacuolar self-digesting mechanism responsible for the removal of damaged organelles, indigestible aggregates, and nonfunctional long-lived proteins by lysosome. Autophagy is dynamically connected to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in several ways. It is capable to counteract the possible harmful effects linked to the impairment of protein

ER-phagy and human diseases

2020
Autophagy regulates the degradation of unnecessary or dysfunctional cellular components. This catabolic process requires the formation of a double-membrane vesicle, the autophagosome, that engulfs the cytosolic material and delivers it to the lysosome. Substrate specificity is achieved by autophagy receptors, which are characterized by the presence of ...
