Broad activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by Parkin is critical for mitophagy [PDF]
, 2011 Parkin, an E3 ubiquitin ligase implicated in Parkinson's disease, promotes degradation of dysfunctional mitochondria by autophagy. Using proteomic and cellular approaches, we show that upon translocation to mitochondria, Parkin activates the ubiquitin ...

Regulatory Mechanisms of Mitochondrial Autophagy: Lessons From Yeast
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Mitochondria produce the majority of ATP required by cells via oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, regulation of mitochondrial quality and quantity is important for maintaining cellular activities.

Parkin interacts with Ambra1 to induce mitophagy [PDF]
, 2011 Mutations in the gene encoding Parkin are a major cause of recessive Parkinson's disease. Recent work has shown that Parkin translocates from the cytosol to depolarized mitochondria and induces their autophagic removal (mitophagy). However, the molecular

Mitophagy Regulates Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]
Cells, 2021 Mitochondria play an essential role in supplying energy for the health and survival of neurons. Mitophagy is a metabolic process that removes dysfunctional or redundant mitochondria. This process preserves mitochondrial health. However, defective mitophagy triggers the accumulation of damaged mitochondria, causing major neurodegenerative disorders ...

Relationship between ferroptosis and mitophagy in acute lung injury: a mini-review [PDF]
PeerJAcute lung injury (ALI) is one of the most deadly and prevalent diseases in the intensive care unit. Ferroptosis and mitophagy are pathological mechanisms of ALI. Ferroptosis aggravates ALI, whereas mitophagy regulates ALI.

Depletion of mitochondria in mammalian cells through enforced mitophagy [PDF]
, 2016 Mitochondria are not only the 'powerhouse' of the cell; they are also involved in a multitude of processes that include calcium storage, the cell cycle and cell death.

Blood flow meets mitophagy [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2022 Since its discovery as a mechanosensitive transcription factor in endothelial networks, Klf2’s varying expression levels under different blood flow patterns remained a mystery. In this study, Coon et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202109144) discover a connection between sustained laminar shear stress and mitochondrial flux that ...

The PINK1/Parkin pathway: a mitochondrial quality control system? [PDF]
, 2009 Significant insight into the mechanisms that contribute to dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson disease has been gained from the analysis of genes linked to rare heritable forms of parkinsonism such as PINK1 and parkin, loss-of-function mutations ...
