Ribosomal protein mutations induce autophagy through S6 kinase inhibition of the insulin pathway.

Ribosomal protein mutations induce autophagy through S6 kinase inhibition of the insulin pathway.

Mutations affecting the ribosome lead to several diseases known as ribosomopathies, with phenotypes that include growth defects, cytopenia, and bone marrow failure.
