ABSTRACT Our previous study revealed the role of glycerol phosphate O‐acyltransferase (GNPAT) in regulating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, its further mechanisms remained unclear. In this study, COPD models were established by exposing mice to cigarette smoke particulates.

USP30: protector of peroxisomes and mitochondria
In our recent publication, we describe a mechanism by which peroxisomes are protected from degradation by autophagy under basal conditions. Taking a page from mitophagy, peroxisomes also recruit the mitochondria deubiquitinating enzyme USP30 to counter ...

Nutrient deprivation triggers USP30 nuclear translocation via an N‐terminal nuclear localization signal (NLS), mediated through suppression of mTORC1‐dependent phosphorylation at serine 104, a modification constraining nuclear entry. Nuclear USP30 deubiquitinates TCF/LEF1 at K379 and K382 residues, disrupting recruitment of CBP/P300 co‐activators to ...

Pexophagy-linked degradation of the peroxisomal membrane protein Pex3p involves the ubiquitin–proteasome system [PDF]
Peroxisome autophagy, also known as pexophagy, describes the wholesale degradation of peroxisomes via the vacuole, when organelles become damaged or redundant.

Generation of pexophagy-deficient mutants in M. oryzae
(A) Schematic illustration of pexophagy occurring during conidial germination and appressorial development in M. oryzae. Vacuolar accumulation of GFP-SRL (peroxisome) was first seen in the two non-germinating cells (1 and 2) of the conidium at the early ...

The phosphoprotein Rppa09976 bridges peroxisomal and isolation membranes during pexophagy [PDF]
Peroxisomes are important single membrane organelles which are required for certain metabolic pathways. In yeast, Pichia pastoris, peroxisomes are degraded by selective autophagy pathway termed pexophagy.

ABSTRACT Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process involved in maintaining homeostasis and in the degradation of damaged organelles and external pathogens. Nature provides complex and varied reservoirs of scaffolds and chemical entities that may have a pivotal role in the search for new therapeutic leads.

Mining Alzheimer's Interactomes, Macromolecular Complexes and Pathways for Drug Discovery
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to dementia. Many cases are diagnosed annually and there is no currently available cure. Understanding the underlying disease biology of AD through the study of molecular networks, particularly by mapping clinical variants to tissue‐specific interactomes and ...
