Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Daniel J. Klionsky, +1287 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell cycle checkpoint signaling through the ATM and ATR kinases

TL;DR: These checkpoints contain, as their most proximal signaling elements, sensor proteins that scan chromatin for partially replicated DNA, DNA strand breaks, or other abnormalities, and translate these DNA-derived stimuli into biochemical signals that modulate the functions of specific downstream target proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

The PI3K pathway in human disease

TL;DR: A perspective on the roles of class I PI3Ks in the regulation of cellular metabolism and in immune system functions is provided, two topics closely intertwined with cancer biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of 4E-BP1 phosphorylation: a novel two-step mechanism

TL;DR: 4E-BP1 phosphorylation by FRAP/mTOR on Thr-37 and Thr-46 is a priming event for subsequent phosphorylated of the carboxy-terminal serum-sensitive sites, including those that interact with eIF4E.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1α Expression and Function by the Mammalian Target of Rapamycin

TL;DR: These studies position mTOR as an upstream activator of HIF-1 function in cancer cells and suggest that the antitumor activity of rapamycin is mediated, in part, through the inhibition of cellular responses to hypoxic stress.
