A Quantitative Ultrastructural Timeline of Nuclear Autophagy Reveals a Role for Dynamin-like Protein 1 at the Nuclear Envelope

Background Introduction The nuclear envelope (NE) is a critical barrier between the nucleus and the cytoplasm, responsible for maintaining the stability of the nuclear environment. The integrity of the nuclear envelope is essential for normal cellular function, and its disruption is closely linked to aging and various diseases. Autophagy is a vital...

RPL12 is a Conserved Ribophagy Receptor

Academic Background Ribophagy is a selective autophagy process responsible for regulating the degradation and turnover of ribosomes. Ribosomes are the core machinery for protein synthesis in cells, and their synthesis and degradation are crucial for cellular adaptation to environmental changes, such as nutrient deprivation. Under nutrient-rich cond...
