?:abstract
  • Autophagy, a bulk degradation process within eukaryotic cells, is responsible for cellular turnover and nutrient liberation during starvation Increasing evidence indicate that this process can be extremely discerning Selective autophagy segregates and eliminates protein aggregates, damaged organelles, and invading organisms The specificity of this process is largely mediated by post-translational modifications (PTMs), which are recognized by autophagy receptors These receptors grant autophagy surgical precision in cargo selection, where only tagged substrates are engulfed within autophagosomes and delivered to the lysosome for proteolytic breakdown A growing number of selective autophagy receptors have emerged including p62, NBR1, OPTN, NDP52, TAX1BP1, TOLLIP, and more continue to be uncovered The most well-documented PTM is ubiquitination and selective autophagy receptors are equipped with a ubiquitin binding domain and an LC3 interacting region which allows them to physically bridge cargo to autophagosomes Here, we review the role of ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like post-translational modifications in various types of selective autophagy
