Autophagy extends lifespan via vacuolar acidification

Autophagy extends lifespan via vacuolar acidification

Methionine restriction (MetR) is one of the rare regimes that prolongs lifespan across species barriers. Using a yeast model, we recently demonstrated that this lifespan extension is promoted by autophagy, which in turn requires vacuolar acidification. Our study is the first to place autophagy as on...
