Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Autophagy-dependent degradation selective for mitochondria, termed mitophagy, is a fundamental mechanism conserved from yeast to humans that contributes to mitochondrial quality and quantity control. In this study, we analyzed yeast mutants and demonstrated that phospholipid methyltransferase, protein N-terminal acetyltransferase, and nascent polypeptide chain-associated factor are important for efficient mitophagy.
