Selective autophagy: Xenophagy [PDF]

open access: yesMethods, 2015
Xenophagy is an autophagic phenomenon that specifically involves pathogens and other non-host entities. Although the understanding of the relationship between autophagosomes and invading organisms has grown significantly in the past decade, the exact steps to confirm xenophagy has been not been thoroughly defined. Here we describe a methodical approach

Oligomerization of Selective Autophagy Receptors for the Targeting and Degradation of Protein Aggregates

open access: yesCells, 2021
The selective targeting and disposal of solid protein aggregates are essential for cells to maintain protein homoeostasis. Autophagy receptors including p62, NBR1, Cue5/TOLLIP (CUET), and Tax1-binding protein 1 (TAX1BP1) proteins function in selective ...

Role of Selective Autophagy in Spermatogenesis and Male Fertility

open access: yesCells, 2020
Autophagy is a “self-eating” process that engulfs cellular contents for their subsequent digestion in lysosomes to engage the metabolic need in response to starvation or environmental insults.

AeiA, an Atg8-interacting protein in Aspergillus oryzae, promotes peroxisome degradation by pexophagy

open access: yesAutophagy Reports, 2023
There are two types of autophagy, non-selective (bulk) autophagy, in which substrates are randomly incorporated into autophagosomes, and selective autophagy, in which substrates are specifically targeted.

Role of Macroautophagy in Mammalian Male Reproductive Physiology

open access: yesCells, 2023
Physiologically, autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved and self-degradative process in cells. Autophagy carries out normal physiological roles throughout mammalian life.

Selective autophagy and viruses [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2011
In recent years, the process of selective autophagy has received much attention with respect to the clearance of protein aggregates, damaged mitochondria and bacteria. However, until recently, there have been virtually no studies on the selective autophagy of viruses, although they are perhaps one of the most ubiquitous unwanted constituents in human ...

Atg5 Regulates Selective Autophagy of the Parental Macronucleus during Tetrahymena Sexual Reproduction

open access: yesCells, 2021
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

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
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.

The autophagic degradation of cytosolic pools of peroxisomal proteins by a new selective pathway. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Damaged or redundant peroxisomes and their luminal cargoes are removed by pexophagy, a selective autophagy pathway. In yeasts, pexophagy depends mostly on the pexophagy receptors, such as Atg30 for Pichia pastoris and Atg36 for Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...

Ubiquitination and selective autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 2012
Ubiquitination has long been recognised as a key determinator of protein fate by tagging proteins for proteasomal degradation. Most recently, the ability of conjugated ubiquitin chains to confer selectivity to autophagy was demonstrated. Although autophagy was first believed to be a bulk, non-selective 'self-eating' degradative process, the molecular ...
