Description
Autophagy is a catabolic process that results in the degradation of bulk cytoplasmic contents within autophagosomes and lysosomes. Beclin 2 is an Atg6/Beclin family member that functions in two distinct lysosomal degradation pathways, autophagy and the downregulation of certain seven- transmembrane-spanning GPCRs. Its role in GPCR lysosomal degradation does not involve Beclin 1 or other Beclin 1/2-interacting proteins such as ATG14 and VPS34 that function in autophagy. Its role in lysosomal degradation also appears to differ from other autophagy- independent functions previously described for yeast Atg6/Vps30 or mammalian Beclin 1, such as vacuolar protein sorting and EGFR degradation
