Autophagy and microtubules - new story, old players
Abstract
Summary: Both at a basal level and after induction (especially in response to nutrient starvation), the function of autophagy is to allow cells to degrade and recycle damaged organelles, proteins and other biological constituents. Here, we focus on the role microtubules have in autophagosome formation, autophagosome transport across the cytoplasm and in the formation of autolysosomes. Recent insights into the exact relationship between autophagy and microtubules now point to the importance of microtubule dynamics, tubulin post-translational modifications and microtubule motors in the autophagy process. Such factors regulate signaling pathways that converge to stimulate autophagosome formation. They also orchestrate the movements of pre-autophagosomal structures and autophagosomes or more globally organize and localize immature and mature autophagosomes and lysosomes. Most of the factors that now appear to link microtubules to autophagosome formation or to autophagosome dynamics and fate were identified initially without the notion that sequestration, recruitment and/or interaction with microtubules contribute to their function. Spatial and temporal coordination of many stages in the life of autophagosomes thus underlines the integrative role of microtubules and progressively reveals hidden parts of the autophagy machinery.

“Post-translational modifications of tubulin such as acetylation and tyrosination/detyrosination can act either singly or in concert with other modifications to control motor recruitment in a cargo-specific manner (Hammond et al., 2008; Mackeh et al., 2013).”

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.
