Macrobenthic communities associated with deep wood falls lying in submarine canyons (DeepFall)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 29 août 2018,
Life in the deep-sea ecosystems is generally dependent on the constant rain and fall of particles and matter from the photic zone and the continental shelf. Submarine canyons may trap and concentrate large organic falls (e.g. terrestrial debris and sunken wood) from wide areas. Its accumulation on canyon floor creates “islands” that contribute to deep-sea species diversity and dispersal. Therefore ...

Autophagy is a cellular pathway that regulates the degradation and recycling of proteins and organelles. This mechanism is initiated with the formation of a phagophore, a cup-shaped double membrane that engulfs the cytoplasmic material to be degraded. The phagophore is then elongated and sealed to generate an autophagosome that will be fused with a lysosome, thereby delivering the cargo for degrad ...
