2 Figure 1 The Many Functions of Autophagy
Autophagy has many protective roles but may also be involved in programmed cell death. Qu et al. (2007) now show that autophagy, through the production of ATP, is important for presenting a signal (phosphatidylserine) on an apoptotic cell to ensure its clearance. This appears to be important in morphogenesis during early mouse embryonic development. Cell  , DOI: ( /j.cell ) Copyright © 2007 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
