Fig 1. Spt20 plays a role in life span and autophagy control.

A) Survival curves in minimal complete medium SC for the SAGA complex mutants in wine strain C9. Cell number at day 3 after inoculation was considered to be 100% viability. All the experiments were carried out in triplicate and the mean and standard deviation are shown. B) Survival curves in low nitrogen (SC N 1/25) medium for the same mutants. Cell numbers at day 7 were considered to be 100% viability. C) Western blot detection of Ald6 in the wild type and the ubp8Δ and spt20Δ mutants in minimal medium with no nitrogen source (SD-N). Alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh) was used as the loading control.
