Ribosomes are abundant cellular machines 1,2 that are regulated by assembly, supernumerary subunit turnover and nascent chain quality control mechanisms 1-5 . Moreover, nitrogen starvation in yeast has been reported to promote selective ribosome delivery to the vacuole in an autophagy conjugation system dependent manner, a process called 'ribophagy' 6,7 . However, whether ribophagy in mammals is selective or regulated is unclear. Using Ribo-Keima flux reporters, we find that starvation or mTOR inhibition promotes VPS34-dependent ribophagic flux, which, unlike yeast, is largely independent of ATG8 conjugation and occurs concomitantly with other cytosolic protein autophagic flux reporters 8,9 . Ribophagic flux was not induced upon inhibition of translational elongation or nascent chain uncoupling, but was induced in a comparatively selective manner under proteotoxic stress induced by arsenite 10 or chromosome mis-segregation 11 , dependent upon VPS34 and ATG8 conjugation. Unexpectedly, agents typically used to induce selective autophagy also promoted increased ribosome and cytosolic protein reporter flux, suggesting significant bulk or 'bystander' autophagy during what is often considered selective autophagy 12,13 . These results emphasize the importance of monitoring non-specific cargo flux when assessing selective autophagy pathways.

Systematic analysis of ribophagy in human cells reveals bystander flux during selective autophagy
