Metamorphic proteins at the basis of human autophagy initiation and lipid transfer

Open access

Preprint — published as 10.1016/j.molcel.2023.04.026

Abstract

Autophagy is a conserved intracellular degradation pathway that uses de novo doublemembrane vesicle (autophagosome) formation to target a wide range of cytoplasmic material for lysosomal degradation. In multicellular organisms, autophagy initiation requires the timely assembly of a contact site between the ER and the nascent autophagosome. Here, we report the in vitro reconstitution of a full-length sevensubunit human autophagy initiation supercomplex and found at its core ATG13-101 and transmembrane protein ATG9. Assembly of this core complex requires the rare ability of ATG13 and ATG101 to adopt topologically distinct folds. The slow spontaneous conversion between folds creates a rate-limiting step to regulate selfassembly of the super-complex. The interaction of the core complex with ATG2-WIPI4 enhances tethering of membrane vesicles and accelerates lipid transfer of ATG2 by both ATG9 and ATG13-101. Our work uncovers the molecular basis of the contact site and its assembly mechanisms imposed by the metamorphosis of ATG13-101 to regulate autophagosome biogenesis in space and time.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
