As a master regulator of the macroautophagy/autophagy-lysosomal pathway, TFEB (transcription factor EB) plays a prominent role in regulating neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. The transcription activity of TFEB is tightly controlled by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. Phosphorylated S211 (p-S211) of TFEB can
