Journal ArticleDOI

Ref(2)P, the Drosophila melanogaster homologue of mammalian p62, is required for the formation of protein aggregates in adult brain.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Ref(2)P localizes to age-induced protein aggregates as well as to aggregates caused by reduced autophagic or proteasomal activity, and a major role is revealed in the formation of ubiquitin-positive protein aggregation both under physiological conditions and when normal protein turnover is inhibited.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bcl-2 and Bax mammalian regulators of apoptosis are functional in Drosophila.

TL;DR: Results indicate that factors necessary for the activity of bcl-2 and bax are present in Drosophila, and may exist in the fly, and a Bcl-1 anti-apoptotic pathway for inhibition of cell death may exist.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bcl-2 and Hsp27 act at different levels to suppress programmed cell death

TL;DR: Comparing the protective effect of oncoprotein Bcl-2 and of the small stress protein Hsp27 on apoptosis and necrosis in rat embryo fibroblasts suggests that their protective functions only partially overlap.
Journal ArticleDOI

The PI 3-kinase regulator Vps15 is required for autophagic clearance of protein aggregates.

TL;DR: These results provide the first genetic evidence for a function of Vps15 in autophagy in multicellular organisms and suggest that the Vps 15-containing PI 3-kinase complex may play an important role in clearance of protein aggregates.
