TL;DR: It is shown that autophagosomes form at the ER–mitochondria contact site in mammalian cells, and new insight is provided into organelle biogenesis by demonstrating that the ER-resident SNARE protein syntaxin 17 (STX17) binds ATG14 and recruits it to the ER—mitochondia contact site.

TL;DR: Yamashita et al. show that Dnm1/Drp1-independent mitochondrial division occurs after formation of isolation membranes and in cooperation with autophagosome formation during mitophagy.

TL;DR: A novel role of phosphoinositide on lysosomes and an association between autophagy and neuronal disease are revealed and reveal the mechanisms underlying autophagosome–lysosome fusion process.

TL;DR: In this article , P4-ATPases, a family of lipid flippases, interact with MTCs that participate in the anterograde and retrograde transport at the Golgi, such as TRAPPIII.
