Any constituent part of the cytoplasm, all of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. A cellular membrane associated with the pre-autophagosomal structure. All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. Any constituent part of the living contents of a cell; the matter contained within (but not including) the plasma membrane, usually taken to exclude large vacuoles and masses of secretory or ingested material. In eukaryotes it includes the nucleus and cytoplasm. A punctate structure localized in the vicinity of the vacuole that is required for the formation of autophagosomes.
