The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest membrane-bound organelle in cells, and its size needs to be carefully controlled. Downsizing the ER by autophagy is now shown to involve Sec62, a protein that also helps to build up the organelle. This link suggests a molecular switch for ER size control.
内质网(ER)是细胞中最大的膜结合细胞器,其大小需要仔细控制。现在已经表明,通过自噬使内质网缩小涉及 Sec62,这是一种有助于构建细胞器的蛋白质。这一联系为内质网大小控制提供了一个分子开关。
