✦ Synopsis

Actin distribution was examined during the cell cycle of the dimorphic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, showing the correlation between bud growth, nuclear migration and rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. The results correspond with observations made in cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, S. uvarum and Candida albicans. Localization of actin was also determined in hyphal cells, where actin is stained predominantly in the tip and also at the septum of hyphae. The standard methods used for tubulin immunostaining in S. cerevisiae and C. albicans cells were adapted for application in Y. lipolytica.

PRS3 is one of a family of five genes encoding phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthetase, an enzyme which catalyses the first step in a variety of biosynthetic pathways, including purine and pyrimidine biosynthesis. We report here that prs3Delta mutants have a number of phenotypes that suggest an unexp
