Synaptic vesicle proteins and ATG9A self-organize in distinct vesicle phases within synapsin condensates
Abstract
ATG9 is the only transmembrane protein of the core autophagy machinery known to be present at presynapses. Here, the authors show that both synaptophysin and ATG9A vesicles assemble into condensates with synapsin but remain segregated from each other.
