    Systematic proteomic analysis of LRRK2-mediated Rab GTPase phosphorylation establishes a connection to ciliogenesis

    Martin Steger, Federico Diez ... Matthias Mann
    Parkinson's kinase LRRK2 phosphorylates a distinct subset of Rabs, and LRRK2-dependent phosphorylation links LRKK2 to ciliogenesis.

    Independent regulation of mitochondrial DNA quantity and quality in Caenorhabditis elegans primordial germ cells

    Aaron ZA Schwartz, Nikita Tsyba ... Jeremy Nance
    Caenorhabditis elegans utilize multiple strategies to optimize germline mitochondrial genome integrity at the foundational stage of gonad development.

    The peroxisomal exportomer directly inhibits phosphoactivation of the pexophagy receptor Atg36 to suppress pexophagy in yeast

    Houqing Yu, Roarke A Kamber, Vladimir Denic
    A novel mechanism by which a compartment-specific AAA+ complex mediating organelle biogenesis and protein quality control staves off induction of selective autophagy.

    Rab5 and Alsin regulate stress-activated cytoprotective signaling on mitochondria

    FoSheng Hsu, Stephanie Spannl ... Marino Zerial
    Oxidative stress leads to the translocation of Rab5 from endosome to mitochondria, regulated by ALS/Alsin, a component associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, leading to mitochondrial-endosomal physical contacts and a cytoprotective response.

    Noncanonical roles of ATG5 and membrane atg8ylation in retromer assembly and function

    Masroor Ahmad Paddar, Fulong Wang ... Vojo Deretic
    Membrane atg8ylation but not canonical autophagy control retromer-dependent endosomal sorting of cargo, including glucose transporter GLUT1, of general import and of significance for control of tuberculosis.

    RETRACTED: Proteasome storage granules protect proteasomes from autophagic degradation upon carbon starvation

    Richard S Marshall, Richard D Vierstra
    Proteasomes are protected from autophagic elimination upon carbon starvation by sequestration into cytoplasmic storage granules, which aid cell fitness by providing a cache of proteasomes that can be rapidly remobilized when carbon availability improves.

    Styxl2 regulates de novo sarcomere assembly by binding to non-muscle myosin IIs and promoting their degradation

    Xianwei Chen, Yanfeng Li ... Zhenguo Wu
    Styxl2, a sarcomeric muscle-specific pseudophosphatase in vertebrates, functions in sarcomere assembly by promoting protein degradation of non-muscle myosin IIs.

    BIRC6 modifies risk of invasive bacterial infection in Kenyan children

    James J Gilchrist, Silvia N Kariuki ... Thomas N Williams
    Defining the probability of bacterial disease among children with severe malaria allows the integration of bacteraemia and severe malaria genome-wide association study data, identifying a novel risk locus for invasive bacterial disease.

    Notch1 regulated autophagy controls survival and suppressor activity of activated murine T-regulatory cells

    Nimi Marcel, Apurva Sarin
    Notch1 activates autophagy to regulate the survival of T-regulatory cells from mice.

    Autophagy linked FYVE (Alfy/WDFY3) is required for establishing neuronal connectivity in the mammalian brain

    Joanna M Dragich, Takaaki Kuwajima ... Ai Yamamoto
    Loss of function of the selective autophagy adaptor protein Alfy/Wdfy3 leads to profound wiring defects from the forebrain through to the spinal cord, highlighting the growing importance for macroautophagy in the developing brain.
