Summary: | Besides the ubiquitin-proteasome system, autophagy is a major degradation pathway within cells. It delivers invading pathogens, damaged organelles, aggregated proteins, and other macromolecules from the cytosol to the lysosome for bulk degradation. This so-called canonical autophagy activity contributes to the maintenance of organelle, protein, and metabolite homeostasis as well as innate immunity. |
