Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 7 | Schematic figure summarizing how WDFY3 regulates macrophage efferocytosis. WDFY3 is discovered as a new regulator of efferocytosis by macro- phages. WDFY3 deficiency in macrophages specifically impaired uptake, not binding, of apoptotic cells due to defective actin depolymerization, thus phago- some formation. WDFY3 directly interacts with GABARAP, one of the seven mem- bers of the LC3/GABARAP protein family, to facilitate LC3 lipidation and the subsequent phagosome-lysosome fusion and degradation of the engulfed AC components.
