The UK has launched a £1m ($1.3m) research partnership to explore the use of limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) in nuclear waste encapsulation. The University of Sheffield, Sellafield Ltd, the ...

BNIP3 and NIX are two other key genes in the process of mitophagy, with equal importance in autophagy. Proteins encoded by the BNIP3 and NIX genes facilitate the recognition and degradation of damaged ...

During starvation-induced autophagy, ATG2A undergoes depalmitoylation as the balance between ZDHHC11-mediated palmitoylation and APT1-mediated depalmitoylation. Inhibition of ATG2A depalmitoylation ...

While autophagy is relevant to many biological processes and often serves as a gatekeeper of homeostasis, when something goes wrong it can either lead to disease or be activated to fight against it.

Autophagy flow was detected by transfecting Lc3 double fluorescent plasmid. After Aβ was injected into the hippocampus of WT mice and PA was injected intraperitoneally, the learning and memory ability ...
