Three Main Types of Autophagy
Description
This template compares three types of autophagy: macroautophagy, where a phagophore engulfs cargo to form an autophagosome that fuses with a lysosome into an autolysosome; chaperone-mediated autophagy, where Hsc70 recognizes proteins bearing a KFERQ motif for translocation into the lysosome; and microautophagy, where the lysosomal membrane directly engulfs cytosolic cargo.
