PLEKHM1: a multiprotein adaptor for the endolysosomal system

Mol Cell. 2015 Jan 8;57(1):1-3. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2014.12.022.

Abstract

Two papers by McEwan et al. (McEwan et al., 2015a, 2015b) identify interactions of PLEKHM1 with autophagosome-associated Atg8 proteins and Salmonella typhimurium effector, SifA, linking autophagy and the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV) to the endolysosomal Rab7/HOPS-regulated tethering machinery.
