Outline of Final Research Achievements	Autophagosome is known to be formed at mitochondria associated ER membrane and cradle structure of ER was observed nearby. This time we attempted screening of ER shapers in autophagosome formation. As a result, we succeeded in hitting a candidate. Therefore, we are now preparing to report our findings.
