Abstract excerpt
Mammalian p62/sequestosome-1 protein binds to both LC3, the mammalian homologue of yeast Atg8, and polyubiquitinated cargo proteins destined to undergo autophagy-mediated degradation. We previously identified a cargo receptor-binding domain in Atg8 that is essential for its interaction with the c...
