title: Autophagy: starvation relieves transcriptional repression of ATG genes.
abstract: Autophagy is a highly regulated process about which relatively little is known, particularly concerning the transcriptional control of autophagy regulation. A new study identifies a key regulator of the expression of autophagy-related genes, thereby providing insights into the signalling pathways modulating autophagy.
