Abstract excerpt
Macroautophagy is a bulk degradation process induced by nutrient starvation in eukaryotic cells. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, 16 ATG genes are essential for autophagosome formation. Recently, we demonstrated that these ATG genes can be classified into three groups on the basis of localization of GFP-Atg8p/Aut7p and Atg5p/Apg5p-GFP under nutrient-rich conditions. In this study, we analysed the intracellular...
