Although the Cvt pathway is the only known biosynthetic use of autophagy, selectivity represents an important aspect of many autophagic processes. For example, specific organelle degradation has ...
Our work on autophagy involves determining the molecular pathways regulating autophagy during pathogen infection. Autophagy has been recently shown to be an important component of the innate immune ...
Organismal lifespan can be extended by genetic manipulation of cellular processes such as histone acetylation, the insulin/IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor 1) pathway or the p53 system.
