Chan Lee @harperlabhms.bsky.social reports CASM-driven V-ATPase recruitment to lysosomes for acidification upon TRPML1 activation via DMXL1-RAVE loader. With Magdalene Moran(Caraway), Sophie Helaine lab, Joao Paulo, & HarperLab teams(HMS). Funds: Warren Alpert FND/NIH www.nature.com/articles/s41...

DMXL1 promotes recruitment of V1-ATPase to lysosomes upon TRPML1 activation - Nature Structural & Molecular Biology

Lee et al. show that DMXL1, a regulator of V-ATPase assembly, is recruited to lysosomes upon TRPML1 activation in a manner dependent on conjugation of ATG8 proteins on lysosomal membranes (CASM) and p...

Here's an autophagic punctum for you:

Small but mighty: ATG9A-positive vesicles are a branch of the intracellular nanovesicle superfamily

Some self-eating self-publicity... 🧪

Small but mighty: ATG9A-positive vesicles are a branch of the intracellular nanovesicle superfamily

The molecular and functional characterization of the thousands of uncoated intracellular transport vesicles inside cells is a major challenge. Intracellular nanovesicles (INVs) are a large and mole...

Very proud to have our paper on ATG9A in lysosome repair online. ATG9A never disappoints! Great work from the very talented @stedet.bsky.social and @ealmacellas.bsky.social 👍

ATG9A and ARFIP2 cooperate to control PI4P levels for lysosomal repair

Lysosome damage activates multiple pathways to prevent lysosome-dependent cell death, including a repair mechanism involving endoplasmic reticulum (ER…
