TL;DR: The Atg8 family of ubiquitin-like proteins play pivotal roles in autophagy and other processes involving vesicle fusion and transport where the lysosome/ vacuole is the end station as discussed by the authors .
Journal ArticleDOI
Atg39 binding to the inner nuclear membrane triggers nuclear envelope deformation in piecemeal macronucleophagy
TL;DR: The mechanism by which Atg39 conducts NDV formation in coordination with autophagosome formation during macronucleophagy is proposed, including how the two nuclear membranes are coordinately deformed to generate NDVs and what nuclear components are preferentially loaded into or rather eliminated from NDVs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Appetite for ER/nucleus destruction
TL;DR: This study has revealed that when starved, yeast cells actively degrade their own endoplasmic reticulum and nucleus via selective autophagy, which involves 2 novel receptors.
