A functional analysis of GABARAP on 17p13.1 by knockdown zebrafish [PDF]
Array-based comparative genomic hybridization identified a 2.3-Mb microdeletion of 17p13.2p13.1 in a boy presenting with moderate mental retardation, intractable epilepsy and dysmorphic features. This deletion region was overlapped with the previously proposed shortest region overlapped for microdeletion of 17p13.1 in patients with mental retardation ...

A STING-CASM-GABARAP Pathway Activates LRRK2 at Lysosomes
Abstract Mutations that increase LRRK2 kinase activity have been linked to Parkinson’s disease and Crohn’s disease. LRRK2 is also activated by lysosome damage. However, the endogenous cellular mechanisms that control LRRK2 kinase activity are not well understood.

GABARAPs regulate PI4P-dependent autophagosome:lysosome fusion [PDF]
Significance Autophagy is an essential homeostatic process that is critically important for maintaining health and that is dysregulated in multiple devastating diseases. The steps in the final stages of autophagy that culminate in autophagosome:lysosome fusion are not well understood.

Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are the most commonly investigated progenitor cells in bone defect repair and osteoarthritis subchondral bone regeneration; however, these studies are limited by complex inflammatory conditions.

LGG-1/GABARAP lipidation is not required for autophagy and development in Caenorhabditis elegans
The ubiquitin-like proteins Atg8/LC3/GABARAP are required for multiple steps of autophagy, such as initiation, cargo recognition and engulfment, vesicle closure and degradation.

Doryphagy: when selective autophagy safeguards centrosome integrity
Although centrosome abnormalities are frequent in cancer, the mechanisms responsible for their accumulation are poorly understood. Here we comment on our recent publication identifying a new type of selective autophagy, named doryphagy, which preserves ...

GABARAP deficiency modulates expression of NaPi-IIa in renal brush-border membranes [PDF]
Renal reabsorption of inorganic phosphate (P(i)) is mainly mediated by the Na(+)-dependent P(i)-cotransporter NaPi-IIa that is expressed in the brush-border membrane (BBM) of renal proximal tubules.

Autophagy is an essential catabolic pathway which sequesters and engulfs cytosolic substrates via autophagosomes, unique double-membraned structures. ATG8 proteins are ubiquitin-like proteins recruited to autophagosome membranes by lipidation at the C ...

A short isoform of ATG7 fails to lipidate LC3/GABARAP [PDF]
AbstractAutophagy is a degradation pathway important for cellular homeostasis. The E1-like enzyme ATG7 is a key component of the autophagy machinery, with the main function of mediating the lipidation of LC3/GABARAP during autophagosome formation. By analysing mRNA-sequencing data we found that in addition to the full-length ATG7 isoform, various ...
