Autophagy-lysosome pathways are known targets of intracellular bacteria – Ivan Đikić @idikic.bsky.social et al find Legionella uses phosphoribosyl-ubiquitination via SidE to alter autophagic SNAREs & create a bacteria-containing vacuole unable to fuse with lysosomes

Excited to share our latest paper in Science Advances! We finally dissected a new pathway for mitochondrial quality control upon mtDNA replication stress! Let’s start a short thread! 🧵

Happy to share the latest work from the lab @crick.ac.uk. Outstanding work from Di Chen and Tony Fearns showing the link between Mtb membrane damage, calcium leakage and ATG8/LC3 lipidation in macrophages. Congratulations Di and Tony!

Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome Ca2+ leakage triggers multimembrane ATG8/LC3 lipidation to restrict damage in human macrophages
Ca2+ leakage triggers LC3 lipidation on multimembrane as Mtb phagosome damage response, independent of autophagy.
