Live while the DNA lasts. The role of autophagy in DNA loss and survival of diploid yeast cells during chronological aging
Figure 2. DNA content of cells that survived CLS assay is diploidal. DNA content of wild-type diploid cells (BY4743) during CLS showed ploidy reduction (A), but only diploids (or near-diploids) can survive and start to grow when transferred to the fresh medium (B). The I, II, III labels indicate the biological repetition.
