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.

Dynamics and diversity in autophagy mechanisms: lessons from yeast

TL;DR: The discovery of autophagy in yeast and the genetic tractability of this organism have allowed us to identify genes that are responsible for this process, which has led to the explosive growth of this research field seen today.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissection of Autophagosome Formation Using Apg5-Deficient Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells

TL;DR: It is shown that mouse Apg12-Apg5 conjugate localizes to the isolation membranes in mouse embryonic stem cells, and the covalent modification of Apg5 with Apg 12 is not required for its membrane targeting, but is essential for involvement of ApG5 in elongation of the isolation membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pre-autophagosomal structure organized by concerted functions of APG genes is essential for autophagosome formation.

TL;DR: Based on Apg protein localization, a novel structure that functions in autophagosome formation is identified and it is revealed that the formation of both a phosphatidylethanolamine‐conjugated Aut7p and an Apg12p–Apg5p conjugate is essential for the localization of Aut 7p to the pre‐autophagosomal structure.
