Kinetic assay of starvation sensitivity in yeast autophagy mutants allows for the identification of intermediary phenotypes

Abstract Objective A classical method to quantitatively determine the starvation sensitivity phenotype of autophagy mutant budding yeast strains is to starve them for a period of time and then to assess the proportion of cells that retain the ability to form colonies when the availability of nutrien...
