Phosphorylation of ULK1 influences the STX17 complex. a HeLa cells were starved and the lysates were performed with IP assay via STX17 antibody and analyzed with ULK1 antibody showed in the right top panel. IPed ULK1 is quantified and showed in the right bottom panel. b ULK1 S423D decreased binding to STX17 compared to WT and S423A by IP assay. In addition, IPed STX17 was quantified. c, d GFP-STX17, Flag-LC3, and Myc-ULK1 variants were cotransfected and detected by immunostaining in HeLa cells (n = 20), and the images were quantified (d). Scale bars, 10 μm. e, f ULK1 S423D affects interactions between STX17 and SNAP29 or VAMP8 with cotransfection and IP assay. The results were analyzed with the indicated antibodies. Bound SNAP29 and VAMP8 were quantified. g myc-ULK1 variant transfected HeLa cells were treated with CQ (100 nM) or PBS. IP assay was performed with STX17 antibody or IgG and detected by indicated antibodies. IPed proteins were quantified. h Lysates from the livers of fasting or normal chew mice were performed by IP assay with STX17 antibody and analyzed with ULK1 antibody. All values are means ± SEM of three independent experiments. Student’s t-test (unpaired); *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. Baf: bafilomycin a1, WCL: whole-cell lysate
