#1559 MTOR Controls an Epigenetic Program Leading to Autophagy and Cell Growth Control

Introduction: Makroautophagy represents an evolutionary highly conserved process involved in the clearance of proteins and organelles. The induction of this central cellular process is tightly connected with programs regulating cell growth control. While the cytoplasmic machinery that orchestrates autophagy is relatively well understood the key epigenetic events that initiate autophagy-related cell growth programs remain largely unknown.
