MindMap Gallery Genetic regulation mechanism of autophagy process
Genes precisely regulate the various stages of autophagy, including initiation, elongation, and termination, by encoding autophagy-related proteins such as ATG proteins. Autophagy plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and infectious diseases, and autophagy dysfunction is an important cause of these diseases. Furthermore, autophagy-related proteins undergo various changes during post-translational modifications, which have significant impacts on the regulation and function of autophagy.
