Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

The Role of Autophagy in Parkinson’s Disease

TL;DR: The concept and physiological function of autophagy, and the proteins related to autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive PD, particularly α-synuclein and PINK1-PARKIN, as they pertain to autophileagy are introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Genomic Screen for Yeast Mutants Defective in Selective Mitochondria Autophagy

TL;DR: A genome-wide yeast mutant screen forMitophagy-defective strains identified 32 mutants with a block in mitophagy, in addition to the known autophagic-related (ATG) gene mutants, and characterized one of these mutants, ylr356wDelta that corresponds to a gene whose function has not been identified.
