Nuclear autophagy is an important selective autophagy process. The selective autophagy of sexual development micronuclei (MICs) and the programmed nuclear degradation of parental macronucleus (paMAC) occur during sexual reproduction in Tetrahymena ...

Selective autophagy controls innate immune response through a TAK1/TAB2/SH3PX1 axis
Summary: Selective autophagy is a catabolic route that turns over specific cellular material for degradation by lysosomes, and whose role in the regulation of innate immunity is largely unexplored.

A Role for Ubiquitin in Selective Autophagy [PDF]
Ubiquitination is the hallmark of protein degradation by the 26S proteasome. However, the proteasome is limited in its capacity to degrade oligomeric and aggregated proteins. Removal of harmful protein aggregates is mediated by autophagy, a mechanism by which the cell sequesters cytosolic cargo and delivers it for degradation by the lysosome ...

The role of OFD1 in selective autophagy [PDF]
Autophagy is a cellular self-degradative pathway. Our study unveiled a novel mechanism mediated by OFD1, the protein mutated in Oral-Facial-Digital type I syndrome, based on selective degradation of autophagic proteins, which enables cells to calibrate their self-degradation.

Selective Autophagy by Close Encounters of the Ubiquitin Kind
Autophagy, a bulk degradation process within eukaryotic cells, is responsible for cellular turnover and nutrient liberation during starvation. Increasing evidence indicate that this process can be extremely discerning.

CALCOCO1 in the progression of malignant tumors [PDF]
Calcium binding and coiled-coil domain 1 (CALCOCO1) is an autophagy regulatory protein being discovered in recent years, which plays an important role in selective autophagy process.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) causes one of the deadliest infectious diseases worldwide. Upon infection, Mtb is phagocytosed by macrophages and uses its virulence-associated ESX-1 secretion system to modulate the host cell.

Pexophagy: A Model for Selective Autophagy [PDF]
The removal of damaged or superfluous organelles from the cytosol by selective autophagy is required to maintain organelle function, quality control and overall cellular homeostasis. Precisely how substrate selectivity is achieved, and how individual substrates are degraded during selective autophagy in response to both extracellular and intracellular ...

Selective autophagy mediates the degradation of cytoplasmic cargos, such as damaged organelles, invading pathogens, and protein aggregates. However, whether it targets double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of intracellular pathogens is still largely unknown. Here,

Mechanisms of Selective Autophagy
Selective autophagy contributes to intracellular homeostasis by mediating the degradation of cytoplasmic material such as aggregated proteins, damaged or over-abundant organelles, and invading pathogens. The molecular machinery for selective autophagy must ensure efficient recognition and sequestration of the cargo within autophagosomes.
