The effector caspase Dcp-1 is sufficient for the induction of autophagy during Drosophila oogenesis. Expression of activated Dcp-1 in the germline (UASp-GFP-LC3/+; nanos-GAL4/nanos-GAL4 UASp-tDcp-1)38 resulted in nurse cell death during mid-oogenesis (arrow) and dying nurse cells had numerous GFP-LC3 puncta (green). DAPI staining of nuclei is shown in white. Scale Bar: 50 μm.
