Lysophagy, triggered by membrane rupture, involves galectins binding to lysosomal contents to promote autophagic recycling. Damaged lysosomes are ubiquitylated, leading to autophagosome formation for degradation in healthy lysosomes.
Lyso-IP is a method that allows for the isolation of lysosomes for proteomics and metabolomics (dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.bybjpskn; dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.bx9hpr36). We have developed an analogous approach for purification of…
