Abstract: The protist (mostly single-celled organisms), Paramecium bursaria, forms an intracellular symbiotic relationship with the single-celled algae, Chlorella variabilis; where P. bursaria provides nutrients (i.e. Ca2+, Mg2+ and K+), carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and protection from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e17-12-0743
Abstract: Cargo-selective and nonselective autophagy pathways employ a common core autophagy machinery that directs biogenesis of an autophagosome that eventually fuses with the lysosome to mediate turnover of macromolecules. In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) cells, several selective… read more here.

Abstract: Long polymers of inorganic phosphates called polyphosphates are ubiquitous across biological kingdoms. From bacteria to humans, they have diverse functions related to protein homeostasis, energy metabolism, and cell signaling. ABSTRACT Polyphosphates (polyP) are energy-rich polymers… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.760932
Abstract: Background Parkinson’s disease (PD) is pathologically characterized by progressive dopaminergic (DAergic) neuron loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and accumulation of intracytoplasmic α-synuclein-containing Lewy bodies. Autophagy has been identified as a critical component… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.41237
Abstract: The ubiquitin-like protein Atg8, in its lipidated form, plays central roles in autophagy. Yet, remarkably, Atg8 also carries out lipidation-independent functions in non-autophagic processes. How Atg8 performs its moonlighting roles is unclear. Here we report… read more here.
