The present study established mutant α-synuclein (A30P) -transfected PC12 cells and treated them with the autophagy inducer rapamycin and autophagy inhibitor wortmannin, respectively. Results demonstrated that mutant a-synuclein resulted in cell death via autophagy and involved a-synuclein accumulation, membrane lipid oxidation, and loss of plasma membrane integrity. Mutant a-synuclein (A30P) also mediated toxicity of 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion. Moreover, rapamycin inhibited a-synuclein aggregation, while wortmannin promoted α-synuclein aggregation and cell death. To further determine the role of autophagy due to mutant α-synuclein, the present study measured expression of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3. Results revealed that wortmannin and 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion inhibited expression of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 while rapamycin promoted its expression. These findings suggested that abnormal aggregation of a-synuclein induced autophagic programmed cell death in PC12 cells.展开更多

Mitophagy is regulated by the post-translational modification of mitophagy receptors. Fun14 domain-containing protein 1 (FUNDC1) was reported to be a new receptor for hypoxia-induced mitophagy in mammalian cells and interact with micro-tubule-associated protein light chain 3 beta (LC3B) through its LC3 interaction region (LIR). Moreover, the phosphorylation modification of FUNDC1 affects its binding affinity for LC3B and regulates selective mitophagy. However, the structural basis of this regulation mechanism remains unclear. Here, we present the crystal structure of LC3B in complex with a FUNDCI LIR peptide phosphorylated at Ser17 (pS17), demonstrating the key residues of LC3B for the specific recognition of the phosphorylated or dephosphorylated FUNDC1. Intriguingly, the side chain of LC3B Lys49 shifts remarkably and forms a hydrogen bond and electrostatic interaction with the phosphate group of FUNDC1 pS17. Alternatively, phosphorylated Tyr18 (PY18) and Ser13 (PS13) in FUNDC1 significantly obstruct their interaction with the hydrophobic pocket and Arg10 of LC3B, respectively. Structural observations are further validated by mutation and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) assays. Therefore, our structural and biochemical results reveal a working model for thespecific recognition of FUNDCI by LC3B and imply that the reversible phosphorylation modification of mitophagy receptors may be a switch for selective mitophagy.展开更多
