YOK-1304
Based on 1 Customer Validation
YOK-1304 is a p62/Sequestosome-1/SQSTM1 ligand that binds to the p62-ZZ domain. YOK-1304 promotes p62 self-oligomerization and LC3 interaction to facilitate autophagic targeting and p62-dependent selective autophagy. YOK-1304 enhances autophagic flux, induces LC3 puncta formation and p62-LC3 colocalization, and serves as an autophagy-targeting ligand (ATL) that can be linked to target-binding ligands to generate AUTOTAC degraders. YOK-1304 is used in research on cervical cancer and pancreatic cancer.

In Vitro
YOK-1304 (1 mM; 2 h) acts as an autophagy-targeting ligand that induces p62 self-oligomerization in HEK293T cells[1].
YOK-1304 (2.5 μM; 24 h) activates and targets p62 to autophagic membranes in HeLa cells, and enhances autophagic flux in HeLa cells[1].
YOK-1304 increases LC3 II accumulation but fails to degrade mutant KRAS in PANC-1, MIA PaCa-2, and SK-CO-1 cells, indicating that YOK-1304 alone is insufficient for KRAS degradation[2].
YOK-1304 (1 μM; 24 h) does not induce significant degradation of ERβ in MCF7 cells[1].
YOK-1304 shows low cytotoxicity in ACHN cells with an IC50 of >20 μM[1].
YOK-1304 alone does not alter the secondary structure of KRASG12D, indicating that mutant KRAS recognition is mediated by the KRB moiety[2].
YOK-1304 (20 µM; 12 h) induces p62-dependent selective autophagy in PANC-1 cells, as evidenced by increased LC3 puncta formation and p62-LC3 co-localization[2].

Autophagy
Autophagy is a process in which eukaryotic cells use lysosomes to degrade their own cytoplasmic proteins and damaged organelles under the regulation of autophagy related gene (Atg). Microtubule-associated proteins light chain 3 (LC3) is recognized as autophagy marker, which transfers from cytoplasmic LC3 (LC3-I) to membrane type (LC3-II). LC3-II/I ratio could be detected by Western Blot and fluorescence microscopy.

Lysosome and acidic-vesicle live-cell staining
Lysosome and acidic-vesicle live-cell staining detects acidic intracellular compartments by using membrane-permeant acidotropic probes that accumulate in low-pH vesicles, including lysosomes, late endosomes, autolysosomes, and acidic phagosomes. LysoTracker staining is commonly used as an intensity-based readout of acidic lysosomal compartment abundance or enlargement, while acridine orange produces green fluorescence in less concentrated compartments and red fluorescence after concentration-dependent accumulation in acidic vesicular organelles. Loss or reduction of acridine-orange red signal can be used as a readout of lysosomal membrane permeabilization or reduced acidic-vesicle integrity. This protocol is designed for live cultured cells and can be adapted for fluorescence microscopy, high-content imaging, plate-reader readout, or flow cytometry when the selected literature supports the readout. Because these dyes report acidotropic accumulation rather than lysosome identity alone,

Macroautophagy Solutions
Macroautophagy is a conserved lysosome-dependent degradation pathway in which cytoplasmic material is sequestered into double-membrane autophagosomes and delivered to lysosomes for degradation and recycling. The pathway supports cellular homeostasis during nutrient limitation, organelle stress, protein-aggregate accumulation, infection, differentiation, and tissue remodeling by coupling cargo sequestration, autophagosome maturation, lysosomal fusion, and degradation of cargo-derived macromolecules. The core molecular sequence includes initiation by nutrient- and stress-regulated autophagy machinery, autophagosome nucleation, LC3/ATG8-family conjugation to autophagosomal membranes, cargo selection through receptors such as SQSTM1/p62, autophagosome-lysosome fusion, and lysosomal degradation. LC3 was identified as a mammalian homolog of yeast Atg8 that localizes to autophagosomal membranes after processing, and p62/SQSTM1 was shown to connect ubiquitinated cargo with autophagic degradati
