Autophagy: A role in metal ion homeostasis? [PDF]
Autophagy, 2008 Nutrient limitation is one of the most common forms of stress encountered by microorganisms in the environment. Surviving this stress depends upon a number of integrated responses, one of the most important of which is autophagy. When the filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus becomes nutrient deprived it undergoes two important processes: the ...
