Abstract excerpt
The endolysosomal system and autophagy are essential components of macromolecular turnover in eukaryotic cells. The low-abundance signaling lipid PI(3,5)P2 is a key regulator of this pathway. Analysis of mouse models with defects in PI(3,5)P2 biosynthesis has revealed the unique dependence of the mammalian nervous system on this signaling pathway. This insight led to the discovery of the molecular basis for...
