AP-4 vesicles contribute to spatial control of autophagy via RUSC-dependent peripheral delivery of ATG9A

Adaptor protein complex 4 (AP-4) deficiency causes a severe neurological disorder via an unknown mechanism. Here, the authors reveal cargo and machinery of the AP-4 transport pathway, and propose that AP-4 mediates spatial regulation of autophagy through peripheral delivery of ATG9A.
