The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) employs a diverse proteome landscape to orchestrate many cellular functions ranging from protein and lipid synthesis to calcium ion flux and inter-organelle communication. A case in point concerns the process of neurogenesis: a refined tubular ER network is assembled via ER shaping proteins into the newly formed neuronal projections to create highly polarized dendrites and axons. Previous studies have suggested a role for autophagy in ER remodeling, as autophagy-deficient neurons in vivo display axonal ER accumulation within synaptic boutons, and the membrane-embedded ER-phagy receptor FAM134B has been genetically linked with human sensory and autonomic neuropathy. However, our understanding of the mechanisms underlying selective removal of ER and the role of individual ER-phagy receptors is limited. Here, we combine a genetically tractable induced neuron (iNeuron) system for monitoring ER remodeling during in vitro differentiation with proteomic and computational tools to create a quantitative landscape of ER proteome remodeling via selective autophagy. Through analysis of single and combinatorial ER-phagy receptor mutants, we delineate the extent to which each receptor contributes to both magnitude and selectivity of ER protein clearance. We define specific subsets of ER membrane or lumenal proteins as preferred clients for distinct receptors. Using spatial sensors and flux reporters, we demonstrate receptor-specific autophagic capture of ER in axons, and directly visualize tubular ER membranes within autophagosomes in neuronal projections by cryo-electron tomography. This molecular inventory of ER proteome remodeling and versatile genetic toolkit provides a quantitative framework for understanding contributions of individual ER-phagy receptors for reshaping ER during cell state transitions.

ATCC (tool)

RRID:SCR_001672

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.

Addgene (tool)

RRID:SCR_002037

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
