ATG1/ULK1 is a Serine/Threonine protein kinase which forms a complex with the Atg13 and FIP200 proteins. This complex is the most upstream component of the core autophagy machinery, and is therefore the key initiator of autophagy in mammalian cells. AMPK positively regulates autophagy under nutrient starvation and cellular stresses by phosphorylating ULK1, leading to the activation of the autophagic process and inhibition of mTOR. mTOR plays a negative role in this process when under growth factor- and nutrient-replete conditions, as it phosphorylates ULK1 and disrupts the interaction between ULK1 and AMPK. Autophagy is a mechanism used by tumors to survive energy deprivation and chemotherapy mediated stress. Autophagy is also implicated in autoimmune (Crohn's disease) and neurodegenerative diseases. Because of its role in autophagy ULK1 is considered an attractive drug target for such diseases.
