Starvation‐induced expression of autophagy‐related genes in Arabidopsis
15 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Autophagy is a catabolic process for degradation of cytoplasmic components in the vacuolar apparatus. A genome-wide survey recently showed evolutionary conservation among autophagy genes in yeast, mammals and plants. To elucidate the molecular and subcellular machinery responsible for the sequestration and subsequent digestion of intracellular material in plants, we utilized a combination...
