Key Regulators of Autophagosome Closure
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved pathway, in which cytoplasmic components are sequestered within double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes and then transported into lysosomes or vacuoles for degradation.

VPS37A, an ESCRT-I complex component, is required for recruiting a subset of ESCRT proteins to the phagophore for autophagosome closure. However, the mechanism by which VPS37A is targeted to the phagophore remains obscure.

Autophagosome formation involves the sequential actions of conserved ATG proteins to coordinate the lipidation of the ubiquitin-like modifier Atg8-family proteins at the nascent phagophore membrane.

The autophagosome:current understanding of formation and maturation [PDF]
Autophagy is an important and highly conserved catabolic process with roles in development, homeostasis, and cellular stress responses. It describes various distinct pathways for the delivery of cytoplasmic materials (including misfolded protein ...

H arp ooning the Cvt complex to the phagophore assembly site [PDF]
Autophagy is a catabolic process employed by eukaryotes to degrade and recycle intracellular components. When this pathway is induced by starvation conditions, part of the cytoplasm and organelles are sequestered into double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes, and delivered into the lysosome/vacuole for degradation.

This study develops a GSH‐responsive nanoplatform, NP@Fla‐Cu, to co‐activate cuproptosis and excessive mitophagy in uveal melanoma. The nanoplatform enhances tumor‐specific copper delivery, depletes antioxidant defenses, and remodels the tumor immune microenvironment.

Conserved regulation of autophagosome-lysosome fusion through YKT6 phosphorylation
YKT6 is a SNARE (Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-Sensitive Fusion Protein Attachment Protein Receptor) protein governing membrane fusion events of several cellular organelles.

Human erythroid differentiation requires VDAC1-mediated mitochondrial clearance
Erythroblast maturation in mammals is dependent on organelle clearance throughout terminal erythropoiesis. We studied the role of the outer mitochondrial membrane protein voltage-dependent anion channel-1 (VDAC1) in human terminal erythropoiesis.

Evidence for the involvement of lipid rafts localized at the ER-mitochondria associated membranes in autophagosome formation [PDF]
Mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) are subdomains of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that interact with mitochondria. This membrane scrambling between ER and mitochondria appears to play a critical role in the earliest steps of autophagy.

Prostate cancer remains a leading cause of male cancer death, yet screening cannot reliably identify aggressive disease, underscoring the need for tissue biomarkers. It is shown that primary tumors increase ER–plasma membrane junction signaling via STIM1/ORP5, whereas metastasis features their loss, Golgi dispersal, and rapid conversion of high‐mannose
