Autophagy depends on the E2 enzyme, Atg3, functioning in a conserved E1-E2-E3 trienzyme cascade that catalyzes lipidation of Atg8-family ubiquitin-like proteins (UBLs).

Receptor proteins in selective autophagy [PDF]
Autophagy has long been thought to be an essential but unselective bulk degradation pathway. However, increasing evidence suggests selective autophagosomal turnover of a broad range of substrates.

Axon Initial Segment: Structure, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized axonal domain critical for maintaining neuronal polarity, action potential initiation, and network stability. This review summarizes the necessary elements for maintaining AIS structure and plasticity, discussing crucial biological functions of AIS in neuronal signaling and the neural circuit homeostasis,

Expression of renal and intestinal Na/Pi cotransporters in the absence of GABARAP [PDF]
We have recently shown that the abundance of the renal sodium (Na)/inorganic phosphate (Pi) cotransporter NaPi-IIa is increased in the absence of the GABAA receptor-associated protein (GABARAP).

Advances in autophagy regulatory mechanisms [PDF]
Autophagy plays a critical role in cell metabolism by degrading and recycling internal components when challenged with limited nutrients. This fundamental and conserved mechanism is based on a membrane trafficking pathway in which nascent autophagosomes ...

Recently, it was revealed that the high-risk, poor-prognosis downregulation of GABA type A receptor-associated protein (GABARAP) causes a defect in both autophagy and surface exposure of calreticulin (CALR) in multiple myeloma (MM) cells responding to ...

Herpesvirus lytic infection-induced mitophagy via viral interferon regulatory factor 1
Viral control of mitochondria via mitophagy has a dampening effect on mitochondrion-mediated innate immune responses. We previously found that human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) could activate mitophagy via its lytic gene product vIRF-1 (viral interferon ...

Autophagy is a cellular degradation process involved in, for example, immune responses to pathogens and neurodegeneration. To identify modulators of autophagy, we developed a microscopy‐based screening assay and identified previously unknown autophagy‐modulating activities in known drugs and natural products from myxobacteria and fungi.

NaPi-IIa interacting proteins and regulation of renal reabsorption of phosphate [PDF]
Control of phosphate (Pi) homeostasis is essential for many biologic functions and inappropriate low levels of Pi in plasma have been suggested to associate with several pathological states, including renal stone formation and stone recurrence.

CCPG1 Is a Non-canonical Autophagy Cargo Receptor Essential for ER-Phagy and Pancreatic ER Proteostasis [PDF]
Mechanisms of selective autophagy of the ER, known as ER-phagy, require molecular delineation, particularly in vivo. It is unclear how these events control ER proteostasis and cellular health.
