Unc51-like kinase 1 (Ulk1) is an essential initiator not only for Atg5-dependent canonical autophagy but also for alternative autophagy. However, the mechanism as to how Ulk1 differentially regulates both types of autophagy has remained unclear. In this study, we identify a phosphorylation site of Ulk1 at Ser746, which is phosphorylated during genotoxic stress-induced alternative autophagy. Phospho-Ulk1746 localizes exclusively on the Golgi and is required for alternative autophagy, but not canonical autophagy. We also identify receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) as the kinase responsible for genotoxic stress-induced Ulk1746 phosphorylation, because RIPK3 interacts with and phosphorylates Ulk1 at Ser746, and loss of RIPK3 abolishes Ulk1746 phosphorylation. These findings indicate that RIPK3-dependent Ulk1746 phosphorylation on the Golgi plays a pivotal role in genotoxic stress-induced alternative autophagy.Carbene-metal-amides are soluble and thermally stable materials which have recently emerged as emitters in high-performance organic light-emitting diodes. Here we synthesise carbene-metal-amide photoemitters with CF3-substituted ligands to show sky-blue to deep-blue photoluminescence from charge-transfer excited states. We demonstrate that the emission colour can be adjusted from blue to yellow and observe that the relative energies of charge transfer and locally excited triplet states influence the performance of the deep-blue emission. High thermal stability and insensitivity to aggregation-induced luminescence quenching allow us to fabricate organic light-emitting diodes in both host-free and host-guest architectures. We report blue devices with a peak external quantum efficiency of 17.3% in a host-free emitting layer and 20.9% in a polar host. Our findings inform the molecular design of th
