A novel type of regulatory mutation for galacrose metabolism in Saccharomyees cerevisiae is described. The mutation named galll was recessive, non-alMic to GAL4, GALSO, GAL2, or GAL3, and unlinked to the gene cluster of GALl, GALIO, and GilL Z It caused a 'coordinate' reduction of galactokinase, gal

## Abstract The uptake and catabolism of galactose by the yeast __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__ is much lower than for glucose and fructose, and in applications of this yeast for utilization of complex substrates that contain galactose, for example, lignocellulose and raffinose, this causes prolonged
An aneuploid strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was isolated from a haploid strain with gal11, mutation of which would presumably occur through mitotic nondisjunction. The strain carries an extra copy of chromosome II deleted for a distal part of its left arm covering ISL1. The partial chromosome is
