TBK1 phosphorylates GABARAP-L2 S87/88. In order to test if this phosphomimetic mutation in GABARAP-L2 changes its binding to other proteins a mass spectrometry based interactome study was performed.
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a cellular process allowing the degradation of intracellular components during starvation. In mammalian cells, autophagosomes can reach over 1000 nm within 30 min after triggering starvation, but how such substantial amounts of membranes can be synthesized within a brief ...
In order to identify TBK1-mediated GABARAP-L2 and LC3C phosphorylation sites, cells were treated with TBK1 or control siRNA and TBK1 kinase activity was induced by treatment with CCCP.
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a cellular process enabling degradation of intracellular components during starvation. In mammalian cells, autophagosomes can reach diameters of over 1000 nm within 30 min after triggering starvation, but how such substantial amounts of membranes can be synthesized within...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a major cause of dementia and a prevalent age-related neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by progressive cognitive impairment and memory loss. Although metabolic activation or dysfunction of microglia is implicated in AD pathogenesis, the phospholipid metabolism–ass...
