Basal mitophagy is widespread in <i>Drosophila</i> but minimally affected by loss of Pink1 or parkin
2018-01-12
Abstract excerpt
Parkinson’s disease factors, PINK1 and parkin, are strongly implicated in stress-induced mitophagy in vitro, but little is known about their impact on basal mitophagy in vivo . We generated transgenic Drosophila expressing fluorescent mitophagy reporters to evaluate the impact of Pink1/parkin mutations on basal mitophagy under physiological conditions. We find that mitophagy is readily detectable and abundant i...
