**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
This therapeutic hypothesis targets the autophagy-lysosomal degradation pathway's kinetic limitations in clearing pathological protein aggregates, specifically focusing on the LC3-II/p62-mediated selective autophagy mechanism. At the molecular level, misfolded protein aggregates are recognized by p62/SQSTM1 adaptor proteins through their ubiquitin-binding domain (UBA), which simultaneously interact with LC3-II anchored in autophagosomal membranes via the LC
**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale**
The therapeutic hypothesis centers on the kinetic constraints governing chaperone-mediated protein disaggregation, specifically targeting the Hsp70/DNAJB1 (Hsp40) chaperone system's interaction with pathological protein seeds. At the molecular level, this mechanism involves the highly conserved Hsp70 ATPase cycle, where ATP binding induces conformational changes in the nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) that modulate substrate affinity in the substrate-binding
