Autophagy receptor optineurin promotes autophagosome formation by potentiating LC3-II production and phagophore maturation

open access: yesCommunicative and Integrative Biology, 2018
Autophagy is an essential physiological process that maintains cellular homeostasis by eliminating harmful protein aggregates, damaged organelles and certain pathogens through lysosomal degradation.

Vtc4 Promotes the Entry of Phagophores into Vacuoles in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Snf7 Mutant Cell

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
Endocytosis and autophagy are the main pathways to deliver cargoes in vesicles and autophagosomes, respectively, to vacuoles/lysosomes in eukaryotes. Multiple positive regulators but few negative ones are reported to regulate the entry of vesicles and ...

Membrane Contact Sites in Autophagy

open access: yesCells, 2022
Eukaryotes utilize different communication strategies to coordinate processes between different cellular compartments either indirectly, through vesicular transport, or directly, via membrane contact sites (MCSs).

Autophagosome Biogenesis

open access: yesCells, 2023
Autophagy–the lysosomal degradation of cytoplasm–plays a central role in cellular homeostasis and protects cells from potentially harmful agents that may accumulate in the cytoplasm, including pathogens, protein aggregates, and dysfunctional organelles ...

Structural basis for membrane recruitment of ATG16L1 by WIPI2 in autophagy

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Autophagy is a cellular process that degrades cytoplasmic cargo by engulfing it in a double-membrane vesicle, known as the autophagosome, and delivering it to the lysosome.

Atg1-dependent phosphorylation of Vps34 is required for dynamic regulation of the phagophore assembly site and autophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesAutophagy, 2023
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a key catabolic pathway in which double-membrane autophagosomes sequester various substrates destined for degradation, enabling cells to maintain homeostasis and survive under stressful conditions.

The autophagic membrane tether ATG2A transfers lipids between membranes

open access: yeseLife, 2019
An enigmatic step in de novo formation of the autophagosome membrane compartment is the expansion of the precursor membrane phagophore, which requires the acquisition of lipids to serve as building blocks.

The lipid flippase Drs2 regulates anterograde transport of Atg9 during autophagy

open access: yesAutophagy Reports, 2022
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a conserved catabolic pathway during which cellular material is sequestered within newly formed double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes and delivered to the lytic compartment of eukaryotic cells for degradation ...

AMPK Regulates Phagophore-to-Autophagosome Maturation

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Autophagy is an important metabolic pathway that can non-selectively recycle cellular material or lead to targeted degradation of protein aggregates or damaged organelles.

Mitophagy intermediates in Vps13D depleted neurons engage with a phagophore.

open access: yes, 2021
A) Representative images of individual larval motoneurons which co-express mitochondrial marker mitoGFP (green) and the indicated RNAi via the D42-Gal4 driver, stained for polyubiquitin (PolyUb, blue), endogenous Atg8A/B (magenta), and endogenous IMM ...
