Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

Autophagy Genes Are Essential for Dauer Development and Life-Span Extension in C. elegans

Alicia Meléndez, +5 more
- 05 Sep 2003 - 
TL;DR: Using nematodes with a loss-of-function mutation in the insulin-like signaling pathway, it is shown that bec-1, the C. elegans ortholog of the yeast and mammalian autophagy gene APG6/VPS30/beclin1, is essential for normal dauer morphogenesis and life-span extension.
