T. Bilinski et al., PHYSIOLOGICAL SUPPRESSION OF SUPEROXIDE-DISMUTASE DEFICIENCY IN YEASTSACCHAROMYCES-CEREVISIAE, Acta Microbiologica Polonica, 42(1), 1993, pp. 101-104
Deficiency in superoxide dismutases results in pleiotropic effects inc
luding hypersensitivity to oxygen and amino acid auxotrophy. Various t
ypes of physiological suppressors of deficiency in cytosolic superoxid
e dismutase were isolated, whereas attempts to isolate suppressors of
mitochondrial enzyme deficiency proved a failure. General characterist
ics of isolated suppressors are presented.
