Role of Ambra1 in autophagy induction
Description
In basal conditions, AMBRA1 is bound to the dynein light chains of the dynein motor complex, together with Beclin-1 and Vps34. Once autophagy is induced, ULK1 mediates the phosphorylation of AMBRA1, thus promoting the release of the complex with Beclin-1 and Vps34 from the dynein light chain and its subsequent translocation to the ER.
