Oxidation inhibits autophagy protein deconjugation from phagosomes to sustain MHC class II restricted antigen presentation
Abstract
LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) is a non-canonical use of the autophagy machinery that can contribute to immune responses. Here, the authors describe the mechanism by which ROS production regulates LAPosome stabilization sustaining MHC II dependent antigen presentation.
