Mechanism and medical implications of mammalian autophagy

I Dikic, Z Elazar - Nature reviews Molecular cell biology, 2018 - nature.com
Autophagy is a highly conserved catabolic process induced under various conditions of
cellular stress, which prevents cell damage and promotes survival in the event of energy or …

Autophagy in major human diseases

…, MI Colombo, AM Cuervo, V Deretic, I Dikic… - The EMBO …, 2021 - embopress.org

homeostasis. Pharmacological and genetic interventions impairing autophagy responses …

[PDF][PDF] A role for ubiquitin in selective autophagy

V Kirkin, DG McEwan, I Novak, I Dikic - Molecular cell, 2009 - cell.com
Ubiquitination is the hallmark of protein degradation by the 26S proteasome. However, the
proteasome is limited in its capacity to degrade oligomeric and aggregated proteins. Removal …
