The yeast Trichosporon adeninovorans secretes an amylase a t a high rate if grown in a medium containing starch or maltose. The enzyme was purified 29-fold by hydroxylapatite chromatography and gel filtration and characterized as a glucoamylase. The enzyme seems to be a glycoprotein with a molecular

✦ Synopsis
We have isolated and characterized auxotrophic mutants of Trichosporon adeninovorans, strain PAR-4 to get genetic markers that cover the entire nuclear genome of this thermotolerant yeast of technological interest. The nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis yielded mutants at a high frequency. We detected a broad spectrum of auxotrophic phenotypes in the random mutant samples. Obviously, strain PAR-4 is a haploid-or hyperhaploid yeast. In correspondence we determined a low DNA content per cell. In contrast to NG'), UV light was an inefficient mutagen. UV survival curves were without the typical shoulder indicating suppression of repair of UV-induced lethal lesions. Thus, the response of PAR-4 to UV was different from those of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other yeasts.

We isolated stable mutants from Trichosporon adeninovorans resistant to 2-deoxy-~-glucose. All mutants were altered in the C-catabolite repression and produced different amounts of glucoamylase and 8-glucosidase when grown on several carbon sources. In addition to the C-catabolite derepression of th
In two strains of Trichosporon adeninovorans genes of unknown location were assigned to linkage groups. Diploid strains were produced by protoplast fusion and partially haploidized by growth on benomyl causing mitotic haploidization. We show that both strains synthesize an extracellular glucoamylase
