Super-assembly of ER-phagy receptor Atg40 induces local ER remodeling at contacts with forming autophagosomal membranes
The ER is subject to autophagy (ER-phagy) for turnover, with Atg40 acting as a receptor to sequester ER with Atg8 in autophagosomes. Here, the authors show that Atg40 is clustered by interaction with Atg8 to generate local membrane curvature and promote autophagosome packing.
