BECN1 (Beclin-1) is the master regulator of autophagy initiation, forming the core of the PI3K-III complex that nucleates autophagosomes. BECN1 haploinsufficiency is implicated across Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and ALS through a convergent mechanism: impaired autophagosome nucleation
