Autophagy meets fused in sarcoma-positive stress granules.
Mutations in fused in sarcoma and/or translocated in liposarcoma (FUS, TLS or FUS) are linked to familial cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Mutant FUS selectively accumulates into discrete cytosolic structures known as stress granules under various stress conditions. In addition, mutant FUS expression can alter the dynamics and morphology of stress granules. Although the link betwee...
متن کاملAutophagy manages disease-associated stress granules
Abnormal accumulation of cytosolic aggregates or inclusion bodies is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases. Many common or specific molecular components such as ubiquitin, α-synuclein, TDP-43, or tau in neuronal cytosolic inclusion bodies have been identified as being associated with cellular pathogenic mechanisms of disease. Recently, stress granule (SG) marker proteins such as PABP...
متن کاملStress granules
Cell growth and proliferation are fundamental processes in living organisms and are dynamically controlled by environmental cues. TOR complex 1 (TORC1) is a central protein kinase involved in the regulation of cell growth in response to a wide variety of cellular states and is the target of the immunosuppressant and anticancer drug rapamycin. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, TORC1...
متن کاملStress granules
What are stress granules? Stress granules are non-membranous cytoplasmic foci ranging in size from 0.1 to 2.0 μm, composed of non-translating messenger ribonucleoproteins (mRNPs) that rapidly aggregate in cells exposed to adverse environmental conditions. Their assembly is triggered by a variety of environmental stresses including heat shock, oxidative stress, hyperosmolarity, viral infection, ...
متن کاملZymophagy: Selective Autophagy of Secretory Granules
Timing is everything. That's especially true when it comes to the activation of enzymes created by the pancreas to break down food. Pancreatic enzymes are packed in secretory granules as precursor molecules called zymogens. In physiological conditions, those zymogens are activated only when they reach the gut, where they get to work releasing and distributing nutrients that we need to survive. ...
