Sepsis is a life-threating multi-organ disease induced by host innate immunity to pathogen-derived endotoxins including lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Direct sensing of LPS by caspase-11 activates inflammasomes and causes lethal sepsis in mice.

Autophagosome formation and cargo sequestration in the absence of LC3/GABARAPs [PDF]
It has been widely assumed that Atg8 family LC3/GABARAP proteins are essential for the formation of autophagosomes during macroautophagy/autophagy, and the sequestration of cargo during selective autophagy. However, there is little direct evidence on the functional contribution of these proteins to autophagosome biogenesis in mammalian cells.

GABARAP proteins as scaffolds in localized TIAM1-RAC1 signaling [PDF]
Spatially restricted signaling is a hallmark of RAC1 signaling. Recent work has uncovered a novel role of gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor-associated proteins (GABARAPs), a subfamily of human ATG8 ubiquitin-like modifiers, in providing a scaffold for recruitment of an ubiquitin E3 ligase complex to its substrate, T-lymphoma invasion and metastasis ...

Skilgreining GABARAP ísoforma, Hlutverk og mikilvægi
Autophagy is an essential degradation pathway in eukaryotic cells. It mediates the degradation of various materials such as proteins, mitochondria, parts of the endoplasmic reticulum and much more. Many genes are involved in the autophagy pathway and one

We previously reported that phospholipase C-related catalytically inactive protein (PRIP)-knockout mice exhibited hyperinsulinemia. Here, we investigated the role of PRIP in insulin granule exocytosis using Prip-knockdown mouse insulinoma (MIN6) cells ...

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 GABA(A) receptor-associated protein (GABARAP). Accordingly, GABARAP-deficient mice have a reduced urinary excretion of Pi.

A Conserved LIR Motif in Connexins Mediates Ubiquitin-Independent Binding to LC3/GABARAP Proteins
Gap junctions (GJ) are specialized cell-cell contacts formed by connexins (Cxs), which provide direct communication between adjacent cells. Cx43 ubiquitination has been suggested to induce the internalization of GJs, as well as the recruitment of the ...

Direct binding to GABARAP family members is essential for HIV-1 Nef plasma membrane localization
HIV-1 Nef is an important pathogenic factor for HIV/AIDS pathogenesis. Studies have shown that the association of Nef with the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane and with endocytic and perinuclear vesicles is essential for most activities of Nef. Using
