Fregno, Ilaria Molinari, Maurizio 2018-04-13 The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a highly dynamic organelle in eukaryotic cells. It is deputed to lipid and protein biosynthesis, calcium storage, and the detoxification of various exogenous and endogenous harmful compounds. ER activity and size must be adapted rapidly to environmental and developmental conditions or biosynthetic demand. This is achieved on induction of thoroughly studied transcriptional/translational programs defined as “unfolded protein responses” that increase the ER volume and the expression of ER- resident proteins regulating the numerous ER functions. Less understood are the lysosomal catabolic processes that maintain ER size at steady state, that prevent excessive ER expansion during ER stresses, or that ensure return to physiologic ER size during recovery from ER stresses. These catabolic processes may also be activated to remove ER subdomains where proteasome-resistant misfolded proteins or damaged lipids have been segregated. Insights into these catabolic mechanisms have only recently emerged with the identification of so-called ER-phagy receptors, which label specific ER subdomains for selective lysosomal delivery for clearance. Here, in eight chapters and one addendum, we comment on recent advances in ER turnover pathways induced by ER stress, nutrient deprivation, misfolded proteins, and live bacteria. We highlight the role of yeast (Atg39 and Atg40) and mammalian (FAM134B, SEC62, RTN3, and CCPG1) ER-phagy receptors and of autophagy genes in selective and non-selective catabolic processes that regulate cellular proteostasis by controlling ER size, turnover, and function. application/pdf https://n2t.net/ark:/12658/srd1318937 https://susi.usi.ch/global/documents/318937 https://susi.usi.ch/documents/318937/files/Fregno_F1000R_2018.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.12688/f1000research.13968.1 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/ark/12658/srd1318937 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess CC BY F1000Research. - 2018, vol. 7, p. 454 Autophagy and macroautophagy ER turnover ER-phagy and recovER-phagy receptors ER stress LC3-interacting region (LIR) Live bacteria Nutrient deprivation Proteostasis info:eu-repo/classification/udc/61 Endoplasmic reticulum turnover : ER-phagy and other flavors in selective and non-selective ER clearance http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
