Microautophagy: definition, classification, and the complexity of the underlying mechanisms [PDF]
Recently, rapid progress in the field of microautophagy (MI-autophagy) revealed the existence of multiple subtypes that differ in both intracellular membrane dynamics and molecular mechanisms.

Degradation of arouser by endosomal microautophagy is essential for adaptation to starvation in Drosophila [PDF]
Drosophila EPS8-family protein Arouser is constitutively degraded by endosomal microautophagy; its stabilisation upon starvation is essential to the animal adaptation and survival. Hunger drives food-seeking behaviour and controls adaptation of organisms

A synthetic chlorophagy receptor promotes plant fitness by mediating chloroplast microautophagy
Summary: Chloroplasts are photosynthetic organelles and one of the major protein-containing organelles in green plants and algae. Although chloroplast contents or entire chloroplasts can be cleared by various vesicular pathways and autophagy, canonical ...

Endosomal microautophagy is activated by specific cellular stresses in trout hepatocytes
Endosomal microautophagy (eMI) is a recently discovered autophagic process where cytosolic proteins are selectively captured in late endosome/multivesicular bodies (LE/MVB).

Insights Into the Mechanisms of Biological Aging That Guide Translational and Clinical Research. [PDF]
Cellular NAD+ levels can be augmented through supplementation with precursors such as nicotinamide (NAM), nicotinamide riboside (NR), and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN). Accumulating preclinical and clinical evidence suggests that NAD+ repletion attenuates both pathological (premature or accelerated) and chronological aging, thereby extending ...

Topology and Function of the S. cerevisiae Autophagy Protein Atg15
The putative phospholipase Atg15 is required for the intravacuolar lysis of autophagic bodies and MVB vesicles. Intracellular membrane lysis is a highly sophisticated mechanism that is not fully understood.

Microautophagy of cytosolic proteins by late endosomes. [PDF]
Autophagy delivers cytosolic components to lysosomes for their degradation. The delivery of autophagic cargo to late endosomes for complete or partial degradation has also been described.

ESCRT machinery plays a role in microautophagy in yeast
Background Microautophagy, which degrades cargos by direct lysosomal/vacuolar engulfment of cytoplasmic cargos, is promoted after nutrient starvation and the inactivation of target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) protein kinase.
