Increased mitochondrial damage plays a critical role in many neurodegeneration-related diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and Down syndrome (DS). Thus, enhancement of degradation by small molecule compounds may provide promising new strategies to tackle these diseases. Here, we explored the strategy induce clearance mitochondria targeting them autophagy machinery autophagy-tethering (ATTECs). We provided proof-of-concept evidence demonstrating that bifunctional compound (mT1) binding both outer membrane protein TSPO autophagosome LC3B simultaneously enhance engulfment damaged autophagosomes subsequent autophagic them. In addition, preliminary experiments suggest mT1 attenuated disease-relevant phenotypes PD cellular model DS organoid model. Taken together, demonstrate possibility degrading ATTECs, which confirms capability organelles ATTECs provides potential intervention mitochondria-related disorders.

As the autophagosome forms, its membrane surface area expands rapidly, while volume is kept low. Protein-mediated transfer of lipids from another organelle to likely drives this expansion, but as these are only introduced into cytoplasmic-facing leaflet organelle, full growth also requires lipid scramblase activity. ATG9 harbors activity and essential formation; however, whether integrated mammalian autophagosomes remains unclear. Here we show that in absence transport, vesicles already competent collect proteins found on mature autophagosomes, including LC3-II. Further, use styrene-maleic acid particles reveal nanoscale organization protein LC3-II membranes; each fully expanding autophagosomes. The ratios two at different stages maturation demonstrate not continuously integrated, rather present seed become diluted membrane.

The life of eukaryotic cells requires the transport lipids between membranes, which are separated by aqueous environment cytosol. Vesicle-mediated traffic along secretory and endocytic pathways lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) cooperate in this transport. Until recently, known LTPs were shown to carry one or a few at time thought mediate shuttle-like mechanisms. Over last years, new family has been discovered that is defined repeating β-groove (RBG) rod-like structure with hydrophobic channel running their entire length.

Autophagy mediates the degradation and recycling of cellular material in lysosomal system. Dysfunctional autophagy is associated with a plethora diseases including uncontrolled infections, cancer neurodegeneration. In macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy) this encapsulated double membrane vesicles, autophagosomes, which form upon induction autophagy. The precursors to referred as phagophores, first appear small flattened cisternae, gradually enclose cargo they grow. assembly phagophores during initiation has been major subject investigation over past decades. A special focus ATG9, only conserved transmembrane protein among core machinery. majority ATG9 localizes Golgi-derived vesicles.

Canonical autophagy captures within specialized double-membrane organelles, termed autophagosomes, an array of cytoplasmic components destined for lysosomal degradation. An autophagosome is completed when the growing phagophore undergoes ESCRT-dependent membrane closure, a prerequisite its subsequent fusion with endolysosomal organelles and degradation sequestered cargo.

Autophagy–the lysosomal degradation of cytoplasm–plays a central role in cellular homeostasis and protects cells from potentially harmful agents that may accumulate the cytoplasm, including pathogens, protein aggregates, dysfunctional organelles. This process is initiated by formation phagophore membrane, which wraps around portion cytoplasm or cargo closes to form double-membrane autophagosome. Upon fusion autophagosome with lysosome, sequestered material degraded hydrolases resulting autolysosome. Several alternative membrane sources autophagosomes have been proposed, plasma endosomes, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, lipid droplets, hybrid organelles, de novo synthesis. Here, we review recent progress our understanding how formed highlight proposed vesicles contain scramblase ATG9 as potential seeds for biogenesis. We also discuss sealed action endosomal sorting complex required transport (ESCRT) proteins.

During autophagy, rapid membrane assembly expands small phagophores into large double-membrane autophagosomes. Theoretical modeling predicts that the majority of autophagosomal phospholipids are derived from highly efficient non-vesicular phospholipid transfer (PLT) across phagophore-ER contacts (PERCS). Currently, tether Atg2 is only PLT protein known to drive phagophore expansion in vivo. Here, our quantitative live-cell imaging analysis reveals a poor correlation between duration and size forming autophagosomes number molecules at PERCS starving yeast cells. Strikingly, we find Atg2-mediated non-rate limiting for autophagosome biogenesis because Vps13 localizes rim promotes parallel with Atg2. In absence Vps13, determines an apparent vivo rate ∼200 per molecule second. We propose conserved proteins cooperate channeling organelle contact sites non-rate-limiting during biogenesis.
