The Actin Cytoskeleton Is Required for Selective Types of Autophagy, but Not Nonspecific Autophagy, in the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Autophagy is a catabolic multitask transport route that takes place in all eukaryotic cells. During starvation, cytoplasmic components are randomly sequestered into huge double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes and delivered into the lysosome/vacuole where they are destroyed. Cells are able…
