Congrats on the fantastic work!

How delivery of new membrane lipids to lysosomes may limit or even repair damage remains unclear. This is a big emphasis for my future work!

Loss of BLTP3A leads to increased lysosome fragility. Our working hypothesis is that CASM recruits BLTP3A to transfer lipids to damaged lysosomes in participation with other lipid transfer proteins.

We find that BLTP3A, a lipid transfer protein structurally related to VPS13 and ATG2 proteins, plays a role in the response to lysosome damage as an effector of the CASM (conjugation of ATG8 to single membranes) pathway
