Abstract excerpt
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, autophagy, a bulk protein degradation in the vacuole, is induced in response to nutrient starvation. In a screen for mutations that result in induction of autophagy even in the presence of nutrients, we have isolated four mutants representing two csc complementation groups. These mutants induce autophagy of which activity is represented by activation of truncated alkaline...
