Human Gene Set: GOBP_PROCESS_UTILIZING_AUTOPHAGIC_MECHANISM

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_PROCESS_UTILIZING_AUTOPHAGIC_MECHANISM

Standard name GOBP_PROCESS_UTILIZING_AUTOPHAGIC_MECHANISM
Systematic name M24318
Brief description A cellular process involving delivery of a portion of the cytoplasm to lysosomes or to the plant or fungal vacuole that does not involve direct transport through the endocytic or vacuolar protein sorting (Vps) pathways. This process typically leads to degradation of the cargo; however, it can also be used to deliver resident proteins, such as in the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway.
