The autophagy-lysosomal pathway enables the controlled degradation of cellular contents. Nucleophagy is the selective autophagic recycling of nuclear components upon delivery to the lysosome. Although methods to monitor and quantify autophagy as well as selective types of autophagy have been developed and implemented in cells and in vivo, methods monitoring nucleophagy remain scarce. Here, we describe a procedure to monitor the autophagic engagement of an endogenous nuclear envelope component, i.e., ANC-1, the nematode homologue of the mammalian Nesprins in vivo, utilizing super-resolution microscopy., (© 2024.
