Structural basis for TNIP1 binding to FIP200 during mitophagy.

ABSTRACT: TNIP1 has been increasingly recognized as a security check to finely adjust the rate of mitophagy by disrupting the recycling of the Unc-51-like kinase complex during autophagosome formation. Through tank-binding kinase 1-mediated phosphorylation of the TNIP1 FIP200 interacting region (FIR) motif, the binding affinity of TNIP1 for FIP200, a component of the Unc-51-like kinase complex, is enhanced, allowing TNIP1 to outcompete autophagy receptors. Consequently, FIP200 is released from the autophagosome, facilitating further autophagosome expansion. However, the molecular basis by which FIP200 utilizes its claw domain to distinguish the phosphorylation status of residues in the TNIP1 FIR motif for recognition is not well understood. Here, we elucidated multiple crystal structures of the comp
