E1-like activating enzyme Atg7 is preferentially sequestered into p62 aggregates via its interaction with LC3-I.

p62 is constitutively degraded by autophagy via its interaction with LC3. However, the interaction of p62 with LC3 species in the context of the LC3 lipidation process is not specified. Further, the p62-mediated protein aggregation's effect on autophagy is unclear. We systemically analyzed the...
