Under the ROS…thiol network is the principal suspect for autophagy commitment

Autophagy

Abstract

Low molecular weight and protein sulphydryls undergo reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated oxidation. However, in contrast to the irreversible damages that oxidative conditions yield on biomolecules, the oxidation of reactive cysteines frequently results in reversible modifications, which represent the prototype of the molecular mechanisms underlying redox signaling. Many proteins involved in a wide range of cellular processes have been classified as “redoxsensitive,” thereby modulating their function/activity dependent on the redox state of their critical thiols. Growing evidence from the past few years supports the idea that ROS production also correlates with the occurrence of autophagy. Nonetheless, the cysteine protease Atg4 remains the sole example of a protein whose redox regulation has been completely characterized and demonstrated to be necessary for the progression of autophagy. The principal aim of this commentary is to draw attention to the remarkable number of proteins that can fit the double role of: (i) being involved in autophagy, especially in autophagosome formation and (ii) sensing alterations of the cellular redox state by means of reactive cysteine residues. We will also attempt to provide a hypothetical m...Continue Reading

Autophagy Networks

Autophagy is a lysosomal pathway that involves degradation of proteins and functions in normal growth and pathological conditions, through a series of complex networks. The catabolic process involves delivery of proteins and organelles to the lysosome. Here is the latest research on autophagy networks.

Autophagy & Model Organisms

Autophagy is a cellular process that allows degradation by the lysosome of cytoplasmic components such as proteins or organelles. Here is the latest research on autophagy & model organisms

Autophagosome

An autophagosome is the formation of double-membrane vesicles that involve numerous proteins and cytoplasmic components. These double-membrane vesicles are then terminated at the lysosome where they are degraded. Discover the latest research on autophagosomes here.
