Structural basis for the selective inhibition of the PI3KC3-C2 complex by Rubicon in endolysosome maturation and mitophagy

Rubicon is a negative regulator of autophagy and the endolysosomal network (ELN) and an antagonist of the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex II (PI3KC3-C2). Inhibition of Rubicon is considered a potential means to therapeutically upregulate autophagy and the ELN to treat Parkinsons disease and other conditions characterized by autophagic and ELN dysfunction. Rubicon is specific for…
