Clusterin facilitates stress-induced lipidation of LC3 and autophagosome biogenesis to enhance cancer cell survival
We define stress-induced adaptive survival pathways linking autophagy with the molecular chaperone clusterin (CLU) that function to promote anticancer treatment resistance. During treatment stress, CLU co-localizes with LC3 via an LIR-binding sequence within autophagosome membranes, functioning to facilitate LC3-Atg3 heterocomplex stability and LC3 lipidation, and thereby enhance autophagosome ...
متن کاملThe Mammalian Kidney. Biological Structure and Function
421 following the linguists, has made so much in his studies on social organization and which is essential also to the explanation of the psychoanalytically interesting dichotomy of self and other, seems to require the integrity of the area comprising the inferior parietal lobe. Evidence is also at hand to support the proposal that there is a localizable neurognostic structure governing the exp...
متن کاملDivergent roles of BECN1 in LC3 lipidation and autophagosomal function
BECN1/Beclin 1 is regarded as a critical component in the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PtdIns3K) complex to trigger autophagy in mammalian cells. Despite its significant role in a number of cellular and physiological processes, the exact function of BECN1 in autophagy remains controversial. Here we created a BECN1 knockout human cell line using the TALEN technique. Surprisingly, the...
متن کاملA biological function for glucagon-like peptide-2.
The cloning of the glucagon gene from anglerfish, rodents and humans ((1) and references therein) in the early 1980s yielded the surprising finding that the glucagon gene not only encoded the known peptide hormone glucagon, but also contained sequences for two additional peptides, which, because of their homology to glucagon, were named glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 and -2 (Fig. 1). The protein...
متن کاملCLOCK stabilizes CYCLE to initiate clock function in Drosophila.
The Drosophila circadian clock keeps time via transcriptional feedback loops. These feedback loops are initiated by CLOCK-CYCLE (CLK-CYC) heterodimers, which activate transcription of genes encoding the feedback repressors PERIOD and TIMELESS. Circadian clocks normally operate in ∼150 brain pacemaker neurons and in many peripheral tissues in the head and body, but can also be induced by express...
