LC3/GABARAPs drive ubiquitin-independent recruitment of Optineurin and NDP52 to amplify mitophagy
Selective autophagy receptors are thought to selectively recruit Atg8 positive membranes to cargo via their LIR motif. Here, the authors show the LIR motifs in OPTN and NDP52 are dispensable for selectivity, functioning instead to recruit additional receptors and amplify mitophagy.
