Popis: DAPK2 is a calmodulin-regulated protein kinase implicated in autophagy regulation, but how physiological stress leads to its activation is yet unknown. Here, the authors show that the central metabolic sensor AMPK phosphorylates DAPK2 to promote autophagy in a calmodulin-independent mechanism.
