| Popis: | Cells keep their proteome functional by the action of the proteostasis network, composed of the chaperones, the ubiquitin-proteasome system and autophagy. The decline of this network results in the accumulation of protein aggregates and is associated with aging and disease. In this Cell Science at a Glance and accompanying poster, we provide an overview of the molecular mechanisms of the removal of protein aggregates by a selective autophagy pathway, termed aggrephagy. We outline how aggrephagy is regulated by post-translational modifications and via auxiliary proteins. We further describe alternative aggrephagy pathways in physiology and their disruption in pathology. In particular, we discuss aggrephagy pathways in neurons and accumulation of protein aggregates in a wide range of diseases. Finally, we highlight strategies to reprogram aggrephagy to treat protein aggregation diseases. |
