1 Figure 5 Lipid droplet consumption
Figure 5 | Lipid droplet consumption. a | Lipid droplets (LDs) can be degraded by lipolysis. As the surface of the LD shrinks, there is protein crowding and some proteins, especially class II proteins, fall off. b | Other proteins are removed from the LD surface and brought to the lysosome by chaperone-mediated autophagy. Small LDs or parts of an LD can be engulfed by a membrane bilayer to form autophagosomes that can be delivered to the lysosome for degradation. Gluchowski, N. L. et al.
