ULK1 in autophagy: sugar it up

open access: yesAutophagy Reports, 2022
Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular degradation and recycling process in mammalian cells, which is comprised of three main types: microautophagy, macroautophagy, and chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA).

Lipid droplets in stress protection: distinct mechanisms of lipid droplet microautophagy

open access: yesAutophagy Reports, 2022
Lipid droplets (LDs) are organelles that function as sites for lipid storage. LDs have also been implicated in the cellular response to proteotoxic or lipotoxic stress as sites for sequestering dysfunctional or excess proteins or lipids, and targeting ...

Eating Locally: Microautophagy and Protein Turnover at the Synapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mechanisms of local protein quality control in the presynaptic nerve terminal remain largely unknown. In this issue of Neuron, Uytterhoeven et al. (2015) describe a form of synaptic endosomal microautophagy controlling protein rejuvenation, critical for ...

Sucrose Starvation Induces Microautophagy in Plant Root Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Autophagy is an essential system for degrading and recycling cellular components for survival during starvation conditions. Under sucrose starvation, application of a papain protease inhibitor E-64d to the Arabidopsis root and tobacco BY-2 cells induced ...

Niemann-Pick type C proteins promote microautophagy by expanding raft-like membrane domains in the yeast vacuole

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Niemann-Pick type C is a storage disease caused by dysfunction of NPC proteins, which transport cholesterol from the lumen of lysosomes to the limiting membrane of that compartment.

Diving into the Evolutionary History of HSC70-Linked Selective Autophagy Pathways: Endosomal Microautophagy and Chaperone-Mediated Autophagy

open access: yesCells, 2022
Autophagy is a pleiotropic and evolutionarily conserved process in eukaryotes that encompasses different types of mechanisms by which cells deliver cytoplasmic constituents to the lysosome for degradation.

Microautophagy in the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yes, 2008
Microautophagy involves direct invagination and fission of the vacuolar/lysosomal membrane under nutrient limitation. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae microautophagic uptake of soluble cytosolic proteins occurs via an autophagic tube, a highly specialized ...

Rapalogs downmodulate intrinsic immunity and promote cell entry of SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in immunocompromised individuals is associated with prolonged virus shedding and evolution of viral variants.
