The Ubiquitin Code in the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System and Autophagy

TL;DR: The complexity of the ubiquitin code is overviewed, with an emphasis on the emerging role of linkage-specific degradation signals (degrons) in the Ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and the autophagy-lysosome system
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of selective autophagy: the p62/SQSTM1 paradigm

TL;DR: Autophagy receptors can induce local recruitment and activation of ULK1/2 and PI3KC3 complexes at the site of cargo sequestration, and Regulation of the capacity of the core autophagy machinery also affects selective autophagic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intrinsically Disordered Protein TEX264 Mediates ER-phagy.

TL;DR: A differential interactome screen using wild-type LC3B and a LIR recognition-deficient mutant and identified TEX264 as a receptor for autophagic degradation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER-phagy).
Journal ArticleDOI

Crosstalk and Interplay between the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System and Autophagy.

TL;DR: The mechanisms underlying the crosstalk and interplay between the UPS and autophagy are discussed, with an emphasis on substrate selectivity and compensatory regulation under cellular stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI

ATL3 Is a Tubular ER-Phagy Receptor for GABARAP-Mediated Selective Autophagy.

TL;DR: It is shown that ATL3 functions as a receptor for ER-phagy, promoting tubular ER degradation upon starvation, and a new ATL3 function for GABARAP-mediated ER- phagy in the degradation of tubularER is revealed.

A novel gene containing a trinucleotide repeat that is expanded and unstable on Huntington's disease chromosomes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used haplotype analysis of linkage disequilibrium to spotlight a small segment of 4p16.3 as the likely location of the defect, which is expanded and unstable on HD chromosomes.

Aggregation of Huntingtin in Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusions and Dystrophic Neurites in Brain

TL;DR: An NH2-terminal fragment of mutant huntingtin was localized to neuronal intranuclear inclusions and dystrophic neurites in the HD cortex and striatum, and polyglutamine length influenced the extent of huntingtin accumulation in these structures.

p62/SQSTM1 forms protein aggregates degraded by autophagy and has a protective effect on huntingtin-induced cell death

TL;DR: In this article, the polyubiquitin-binding protein p62/SQSTM1 has been shown to be involved in linking polyUBiquitinated protein aggregates to the autophagy machinery.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Atg Proteins in Autophagosome Formation

TL;DR: The molecular mechanism of autophagosome formation is described with particular focus on the function of Atg proteins and the long-standing discussion regarding the origin of the autophagous membrane membrane.
