Posttranslational Modifications of Autophagy-related Proteins

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular catabolic pathway in response to metabolic stresses.Autophagy is activated with the formation of double-membrane structures named autophagosome,which can ferry cytoplasmic impaired organelles and proteins to the lysosome for degradation.Autophagy is regarded as a quality control mechanism that contributes to the maintainance of cell homeostasis.By…
