Biology:Cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting
From HandWiki
Short description: Autophagy-related pathway in yeast
Cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) is an autophagy-related pathway in yeast. Under vegetative conditions it delivers hydrolases, such as aminopeptidase 1 (Ape1), to the vacuole.[1][2] This makes the cvt pathway the only known biosynthetic pathway to utilize the machinery of autophagy for operation.[1]
Nomenclature
The abbreviation Cvt comes from the emphasis Cytoplasm vacuole targeting, not from Cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting.
