Variants of mitochondrial autophagy: Types 1 and 2 mitophagy and micromitophagy (Type 3)
Mitophagy (mitochondrial autophagy), which removes damaged, effete and superfluous mitochondria, has several distinct variants. In Type 1 mitophagy occurring during nutrient deprivation, preautophagic structures (PAS) grow into cup-shaped phagophores that surround and sequester individual mitochond...
