Structural mechanism of protein recognition by the FW domain of autophagy receptor Nbr1
Abstract
Nbr1 recognizes cargos in selective autophagy. Here, authors show filamentous yeast Nbr1 binds Ams1 via an FW domain, and the cryo-EM structure reveals that Nbr1 recognizes the N-terminal di-glycine and tetrameric assembly of Ams1.
