The Fly Muscles in on Glycogen Autophagy

Year: 2013
Type: article
Abstract: Fruitfly larvae fed with the drug chloroquine accumulate glycogen-filled vesicles in their skeletal muscles.Glycogen synthase (green) and the core autophagy component, Atg8 (red), localize to these vesicles, which deliver glycogen to the lysosome in response to starvation.Nuclei are stained in blue.
