Thrilled to share my latest review on the role of the #WIPI2 and #ATG16L1 complex in both selective and nonselective #autophagy 🔍🧬 It’s fascinating how these two forms of autophagy rely on the same core machinery, yet lead to such different outcomes. What defines this divergence? Have a look here 👀

This one is a bit of a departure from the usual and definitely a work in progress!

We found that by using ab initio reconstruction at very high res, in very small steps, we could crack some small structures that had eluded us - e.g. 39kDa iPKAc (EMPIAR-10252), below.

Chronic stress, impaired autophagy, and depression (as opposed to acute stress)

Chronic stress drives depression by disrupting cellular housekeeping
Boosting the recycling process known as autophagy — impaired in the brain during prolonged stress — has the potential to restore normal neuronal activity and treat depression.
