This article has been updated

Selective autophagy is important for controlled degradation of cellular components. However, a selective autophagic degradation mechanism for ribosomes in mammals has remained unclear. A study now describes non-selective and selective ribosome degradation and a significant role for ‘bystander’ non-selective autophagy.

Change history

  • 19 April 2018

    In the version of this News & Views originally published, owing to a technical error some incorrect characters were introduced into the second sentence of the main text, starting “Autophagy can be divided into non-selective...”, where “caspringDE@2017n” should have read ‘can’. This has now been corrected in all versions of this News & Views.
