The nuclear pleiotropic respiratory-deficient mutant pet1 (previously M126) exhibits cytochromes aa3 and b deficiencies accompanied by loss of the oligomycin-sensitivity of the mitochondrial ATPase. The mutant pet1, unable to grow on glycerol, growth on glucose. The latter phenotypic trait symbolize

Mutations at the URA3 locus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be obtained by a positive selection. Wild-type strains of yeast (or ura3 mutant strains containing a plasmid-borne URA3+ gene) are unable to grow on medium containing the pyrimidine analog 5-fluoro-orotic acid, whereas ura3- mutants grow no
One approach towards understanding the transduction pathways of phytochromes is the selection of mutants impaired in various steps. We report here the construction of an inducible counter-selection system for such mutants employing the enzyme nitrate reductase. This enzyme can convert the benign sub
The glucose analogues 2-deoxyglucose and n-glucosamine repressed the production of extracellular endodextranase in the yeast Lipomyces starkeyi. Though both analogues were successfully used for the selective isolation of derepressed and hyperproductive mutants, 2-deoxyglucose proved to be superior t
