Abstract
Although autophagy has been linked to tumourigenesis, it is unclear how genomic alterations affect autophagy selectivity in tumours. Here, the authors establish a pipeline that integrates computational and experimental approaches to show that altered autophagy selectivity is frequent in cancer cells and link glycogen autophagy with tumourigenesis.
