## Mechanistic Overview
Differential Calpain-Mediated Cleavage of Apoptotic vs. Autophagic Substrates starts from the claim that modulating CAPN1/CAPN2 within the disease context of neurodegeneration can redirect a disease-relevant process. The original description reads: "## Mechanistic Overview Differential Calpain-Mediated Cleavage of Apoptotic vs. Autophagic Substrates starts from the claim that modulating CAPN1/CAPN2 within the disease context of neurodegeneration can redirect a disease-rel
**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
The transcription factor EB (TFEB) and its closely related family member TFE3 represent master regulators of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy through their coordinated control of the Coordinated Lysosomal Expression and Regulation (CLEAR) network. Under basal conditions, TFEB resides predominantly in the cytoplasm, sequestered through phosphorylation-dependent interactions with 14-3-3 proteins. The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) serves
