Acinus: a nuclear regulator of autophagy and endocytic trafficking.
Autophagy - 1 Oct 2010
Krämer Helmut
Abstract excerpt
Fusion with lysosomes is the common last step of endocytic trafficking and autophagy. Accordingly, several proteins are required in both pathways for cargoes to reach their destinations. Among these proteins, Drosophila Acinus stands out, as it exerts opposite effects on these two pathways, and thus establishes a new paradigm. Loss of Acinus function destabilizes early endosomes, thereby promoting the delivery of...
