Mixed lineage kinase-like protein (MLKL) forms amyloid-like polymers to promote necroptosis; however, the mechanism through which these polymers trigger cell death is not clear. We have determined that activated MLKL translocates to the lysosomal membrane during necroptosis induction. The subsequent polymerization of MLKL induces lysosome clustering and fusion and eventual lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP). This LMP leads to the rapid release of lysosomal contents into the cytosol, resul ...[more]
