1 AMPK-activated ULK1 phosphorylates PIKFYVE to drive formation of PtdIns5P-containing autophagosomes during glucose starvation. phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 Homo sapiens
2 Recently, we described a non-canonical signaling pathway involving the kinases AMPK, ULK1 and PIKFYVE that are induced during glucose starvation, leading to the formation of PtdIns5P-containing autophagosomes, resulting in increased autophagy flux and clearance of autophagy substrates. phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 Homo sapiens
3 ULK1 then phosphorylates PIKFYVE at S1548, leading to its activation and increased PtdIns5P formation, which enables the recruitment of machinery required for autophagosome biogenesis. phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 Homo sapiens
