Nutrient deprivation inhibits mTORC1 and activates AMPK, which then dephosphorylates or phosphorylates ULK1 at different sites, leading to the activation of the ULK complex and initiation of the ...
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe X-linked myopathy characterised by progressive skeletal and cardiac muscle ...
In a twist that blurs the lines between two devastating diseases, scientists have spotted dementia-like behavior in the pancreas. In mice, pancreatic cells teetering on the brink of cancer began to ...
Upon autophagy induction, ZDHHC13 is recruited to autophagosome formation sites together with ATG9A. ULK1 is palmitoylated at Cys 927 and Cys 1003 residues by ZDHHC13, and the ULK1 complex are ...
A new study unravels the relationship between mitofusins (mitochondrial proteins) and autophagy. Using gene editing with CRISPR-Cas9, the team has been able to study these proteins without altering ...
A research team has discovered a novel mechanism essential for initiating autophagy. The study highlights the role of ZDHHC13, an enzyme that palmitoylates ULK1, in triggering autophagy. This ...
