Soon… a book is coming out on membrane atg8ylation as a broad homeostatic response (autophagy is only one of its many outputs). 18 chapters by world’s best experts in the field. A must read.

A roadmap and a new direction charted for the field of ‘non-canonical autophagy’ - membrane #atg8ylation -a must have book for cell biologists, #autophagy enthusiast, #ubiquitin, #stress response, and #organelle #homeostasis experts and novices alike.

If you ever wondered what atg8ylation is and what it does this u-tube skit (courtesy of and credits to UC Davis MS facility director Dr Brett Phinney) is so much fun to listen to. youtu.be/3-_T9ccJnmY

Go ahead, satisfy your curiosity: Not only does #ATG9A contribute to phagophore initiation and expansion but it works hard until the very end - to close nascent phagophores and form double membrane #autophagosomes. ATG9A is a weaving loom of #autophagy. doi.org/10.1083/jcb.20…

Dr. MARINA GARCÍA MACIA, just gave an excellent talk at the AIM center TAIMs seminar series. "Autophagy role in the brain-to-periphery axis" Dr Garcia Macis is also a member of AIMs exclusive group of international raising talents (COIR) Any questions about COIR check AIMs site

A new rendition of #membrane atg8ylation is now available on #Biorender. Includes details re types of membranes. We are very appreciative of quality and artistic work by the Biorender team and especially Martina. Link below, feel free to peruse and use: app.biorender.com/profile/templa…
