    Abstract Autophagosomes are double-membraned vesicles that engulf cytoplasmic contents, which are ultimately degraded after autophagosome-lysosome fusion. The prevailing view, largely inferred from EM-based studies, was that mammalian autophagosomes evolved from disc-shaped precursors that invaginated and then were closed at the single opening. Many site(s) of origin of these precursors have been proposed. Using superresolution structured illumination microscopy and electron microscopy, we find that mammalian autophagosomes derive from finger-like outgrowths from the recycling endosome. These "fingers" survey a large cell volume and then close into a "fist" and the openings are sealed in an ESCRT-dependent fashion, while the precursors are still attached to the recycling endosome. We call this transient recycling endosome-attached, closed, autophagic structure an "autophago-dome". DNM2-dependent scission of the autophago-dome from the recycling endosomes liberates free autophagosomes from this compartment. These data reveal unexpected morphologies of autophagosome precursors and raise new questions about the control of this process.

    Abstract Our understanding of stress granule (SG) biology has deepened considerably in recent years, and with this, increased understanding of links has been made between SGs and numerous neurodegenerative diseases. One of the proposed mechanisms by which SGs and any associated protein aggregates may become pathological is based upon defects in their autophagic clearance, and so the precise processes governing the degradation of SGs are important to understand. Mutations and disease-associated variants implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease and frontotemporal lobar dementia compromise autophagy, whilst autophagy-inhibiting drugs or knockdown of essential autophagy proteins result in the persistence of SGs. In this review, we will consider the current knowledge regarding the autophagy of SG.

    Abstract The sequence of morphological intermediates that leads to mammalian autophagosome formation and closure is a crucial yet poorly understood issue. Previous studies have shown that yeast autophagosomes evolve from cup-shaped phagophores with only one closure point, and mammalian studies have inferred that mammalian phagophores also have single openings. Our superresolution microscopy studies in different human cell lines in conditions of basal and nutrient-deprivation-induced autophagy identified autophagosome precursors with multifocal origins that evolved into unexpected finger-like phagophores with multiple openings before becoming more spherical structures. Compatible phagophore structures were observed with whole-mount and conventional electron microscopy. This sequence of events was visualized using advanced SIM

    Abstract Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor that acts as a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis, lysosomal exocytosis, and macro-autophagy. TFEB contributes to a wide range of physiological functions, including mitochondrial biogenesis and innate and adaptive immunity. As such, TFEB is an essential component of cellular adaptation to stressors, ranging from nutrient deprivation to pathogenic invasion. The activity of TFEB depends on its subcellular localisation, turnover, and DNA-binding capacity, all of which are regulated at the post-translational level. Pathological states are characterised by a specific set of stressors, which elicit post-translational modifications that promote gain or loss of TFEB function in the affected tissue. In turn, the resulting increase or decrease in survival of the tissue in which TFEB is more or less active, respectively, may either benefit or harm the organism as a whole. In this way, the post-translational modifications of TFEB account for its otherwise paradoxical protective and deleterious effects on organismal fitness in diseases ranging from neurodegeneration to cancer. In this review, we describe how the intracellular environment characteristic of different diseases alters the post-translational modification profile of TFEB, enabling cellular adaptation to a particular pathological state.

    Abstract The induction of macroautophagy/autophagy upon glucose deprivation can occur independently of the PIK3C3/VPS34 complex. Recently, we described a non-canonical signaling pathway involving the kinases AMPK, ULK1 and PIKFYVE that are induced during glucose starvation, leading to the formation of PtdIns5P-containing autophagosomes, resulting in increased autophagy flux and clearance of autophagy substrates. In this cascade, the activation of AMPK leads to ULK1 phosphorylation. ULK1 then phosphorylates PIKFYVE at S1548, leading to its activation and increased PtdIns5P formation, which enables the recruitment of machinery required for autophagosome biogenesis.

    Abstract β-Propeller protein-associated neurodegeneration (BPAN) is a rare X-linked dominant disease, one of several conditions that manifest with neurodegeneration and brain iron accumulation. Mutations in the WD repeat domain 45 (WDR45) gene encoding WIPI4 lead to loss of function in BPAN but the cellular mechanisms of how these trigger pathology are unclear. The prevailing view in the literature is that BPAN is simply the consequence of autophagy deficiency given that WIPI4 functions in this degradation pathway. However, our data indicate that WIPI4 depletion causes ferroptosis-a type of cell death induced by lipid peroxidation-via an autophagy-independent mechanism, as demonstrated both in cell culture and in zebrafish. WIPI4 depletion increases ATG2A localization at endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrial contact sites, which enhances phosphatidylserine import into mitochondria. This results in increased mitochondrial synthesis of phosphatidylethanolamine, a major lipid prone to peroxidation, thus enabling ferroptosis. This mechanism has minimal overlap with classical ferroptosis stimuli but provides insights into the causes of neurodegeneration in BPAN and may provide clues for therapeutic strategies.

    Abstract The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a master regulator of cell growth, metabolism and autophagy. Multiple pathways modulate mTORC1 in response to nutrients. Here we describe that nucleus-cytoplasmic shuttling of p300/EP300 regulates mTORC1 activity in response to amino acid or glucose levels. Depletion of these nutrients causes cytoplasm-to-nucleus relocalization of p300 that decreases acetylation of the mTORC1 component raptor, thereby reducing mTORC1 activity and activating autophagy. This is mediated by AMP-activated protein kinase-dependent phosphorylation of p300 at serine 89. Nutrient addition to starved cells results in protein phosphatase 2A-dependent dephosphorylation of nuclear p300, enabling its CRM1-dependent export to the cytoplasm to mediate mTORC1 reactivation. p300 shuttling regulates mTORC1 in most cell types and occurs in response to altered nutrients in diverse mouse tissues. Interestingly, p300 cytoplasm-nucleus shuttling is altered in cells from patients with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome. p300 mislocalization by the disease-causing protein, progerin, activates mTORC1 and inhibits autophagy, phenotypes that are normalized by modulating p300 shuttling. These results reveal how nutrients regulate mTORC1, a cytoplasmic complex, by shuttling its positive regulator p300 in and out of the nucleus, and how this pathway is misregulated in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, causing mTORC1 hyperactivation and defective autophagy.
