Cvt18/Gsa12 Is Required for Cytoplasm-to-Vacuole Transport, Pexophagy, and Autophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris

Eukaryotic cells have the ability to degrade proteins and organelles by selective and nonselective modes of micro- and macroautophagy. In addition, there exist both constitutive and regulated forms of autophagy. For example, pexophagy is a selective process for the regulated degradation of peroxi…
