FAM134B-RHD Protein Clustering Drives Spontaneous Budding of Asymmetric Membranes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2021
AbstractLiving cells constantly remodel the shape of their lipid membranes. In the endo-plasmic reticulum (ER), the reticulon homology domain (RHD) of the reticulophagy regulator 1 (RETR1/FAM134B) forms dense autophagic puncta that are associated with membrane removal by ER-phagy.

Critical roles of FAM134B in ER-phagy and diseases [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Disease, 2020
AbstractFAM134B (also called JK-1, RETREG1), a member of the family with sequence similarity 134, was originally discovered as an oncogene in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. However, its most famous function is that of an ER-phagy-regulating receptor.

A RETREG1/FAM134B isoform switch regulates reticulophagy during myogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy
During skeletal muscle development, the sarcoplasmic reticulum forms through the homotypic fusion of ER membranes from individual myoblasts. This involves significant ER remodeling, characterized by an overhaul of its proteomic landscape and the activation of reticulophagy.

Manipulation of the Unfolded Protein Response by Intracellular Bacterial Pathogens: Mechanisms of ER Hijacking and Therapeutic Implications. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J
This review illustrates how intracellular bacterial pathogens—such as Brucella, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Legionella—secrete effector proteins that specifically target the IRE1α, PERK, and ATF6 branches of the unfolded protein response (UPR) to hijack ER stress signaling.

An N-terminal–truncated isoform of FAM134B (FAM134B-2) regulates starvation-induced hepatic selective ER-phagy [PDF]

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2019
Autophagy is a conserved system that adapts to nutrient starvation, after which proteins and organelles are degraded to recycle amino acids in response to starvation. Recently, the ER was added to the list of targets of autophagic degradation. Autophagic degradation pathways of bulk ER and the specific proteins sorted through the ER are considered key ...

Heteromeric clusters of ubiquitinated ER-shaping proteins drive ER-phagy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Membrane-shaping proteins characterized by reticulon homology domains play an important part in the dynamic remodelling of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). An example of such a protein is FAM134B, which can bind LC3 proteins and mediate the degradation of

Beating the ER: novel insights into FAM134B function and regulation [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2020
To maintain cellular homeostasis, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) necessitates a continuous removal of ER fragments via a selective, receptor-mediated, form of autophagy known as ER-phagy. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Jiang et al (2020) shed light on how the best characterized autophagy receptor FAM134B mediates ER membrane fragmentation, the ...

Novel FAM134B mutations and their clinicopathological significance in colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Genetics, 2017
FAM134B is a putative tumour suppressor gene and no mutations in FAM134B have been reported in colorectal cancer (CRC) to date. This study aims to identify FAM134B mutation sites and the clinicopathological significance of the gene in patients with CRC. Eighty-eight colorectal cancers were studied for FAM134B mutations by Sanger sequencing.

The function of ER-phagy receptors is regulated through phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination pathways

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Selective autophagy of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), known as ER-phagy, is an important regulator of ER remodeling and essential to maintain cellular homeostasis during environmental changes.
