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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yeast Eps15-like endocytic protein, Pan1p, activates the Arp2/3 complex

TL;DR: It is suggested that Pan1p forms the core of an endocytic complex and physically couples actin polymerization nucleated by the Arp2/3 complex to the endocytical machinery, thus providing the forces necessary for endocytosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insights into TOR function and rapamycin response: Chemical genomic profiling by using a high-density cell array method

TL;DR: A high-density cell array with quantitative and automated readout of cell fitness is developed to map the relation between genes and cell fitness in response to rapamycin, a medically important natural product that targets the eukaryotic kinase Tor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yeast epsin-related proteins required for Golgi-endosome traffic define a gamma-adaptin ear-binding motif.

TL;DR: It is proposed that ENTH-domain-containing proteins are a universal component of CCV formation and constitute a functionally related pair that co-operate with Gga proteins and AP-1 to recruit clathrin and promote formation ofClathrin coats at the Golgi/endosomes.
