This study maps the structural pathway of class III PI 3-kinase activation by showing how N-myristoylation of VPS15 stabilizes the inactive conformation and how GTP binding promotes activation.

The paper identifies presynapses as sites of mitophagy in neurons and shows their role in preventing axon degeneration when mitophagy is defective.
