Glycolysis mutants in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Mutants have been isolated in S. cerevisiae with the phenotype of growth on pyruvate but not on glucose, or growth on rich medium with pyruvate but inhibition by glucose. Screening of mutagenized cultures was either without an enrichment step, or after enrichment using the antibiotic netropsin (Young et al. 1976) or inositol starvation (Henry, Donahue and Culbertson 1975). One class of mutants ...
متن کاملCytokinin Utilization by Adenine-Requiring Mutants of the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
By monitoring the growth of several adenine auxotrophs of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on cytokinin-supplemented media, we have demonstrated that this organism can utilize some of these derivatives as a source of adenine. Growth of a mutant lacking adenylosuccinate synthetase suggests that the conversion of cytokinins to adenine does not involve a hypoxanthine intermediate and may be cata...

متن کاملHuman Adenine Phosphoribosyltransferase
Human adenine phosphoribosyltransferase has been purified 33,000-fold from erythrocytes to a specific activity of 9.58 pmoles of AMP formed per mg of protein per min. The native enzyme has a molecular weight of 34,000 and is composed of three subunits of equal molecular weight which appear to be associated by noncovalent forces. The highly purified enzyme is maximally active over a broad pH ran...
متن کاملCharacterization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ubiquinone-deficient mutants.
Ubiquinol (QH2) is a lipid-soluble molecule that participates in cellular redox reactions. Previous studies have shown that yeast mutants lacking QH2 are hypersensitive to treatment with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) indicating that QH2 can function as an antioxidant in vivo. In this study the effect of 1 mM linolenic acid on levels of Q6 and Q6H2 is assessed in both wild-type and respira...
