Being a scientist is a huge privilege and I am forever thankful for the opportunity.
Canonical and noncanonical autophagy in immunity sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A labor of over two years - summarizing canonical and noncanoncial autophagic processes in immunity and disease. It defines expanding ares of growth where aspiring young scientists can make their mark.

A #BriefReview discusses how membrane atg8ylation and autophagy shape innate and adaptive immunity against pathogens and suggests further studies to identify downstream immunological effector mechanisms of membrane atg8ylation. Read more: https://ow.ly/nLNj50YNwhK.

Prior studies show that #Lysosome proton pump V-ATPase interacts with #ATG16L1, an #autophagy factor, to direct membrane #atg8ylation upon damage. A new study shows the reverse - ATG16L1 inhibits V-ATPase.

Everyone interested in #autophagy knows that #ATG16L1 is an E3 ligase for membrane #atg8ylation sometimes directed by V-ATPase. A new study shows the reverse - that ATG16L1 inhibits V-ATPase.
