E. Riballo et R. Lagunas, INVOLVEMENT OF ENDOCYTOSIS IN CATABOLITE INACTIVATION OF THE K-TRANSPORT SYSTEMS IN SACCHAROMYCES-CEREVISIAE( AND GLUCOSE), FEMS microbiology letters, 121(1), 1994, pp. 77-80
The possible relationship between endocytosis and catabolite inactivat
ion of plasma membrane proteins in Saccharomyces romyces cerevisiae ha
s been investigated. Using mutants with an increased rate of endocytos
is we have shown that there is a positive correlation between the rate
of endocytosis and the rate of inactivation of the K+ and glucose tra
nsport systems. It is concluded that endocytosis is involved in catabo
lite inactivation of these two transport systems.
