Candida valida--a yeast lacking the reverse transsulphuration pathway
1Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw.
Abstract:
A new yeast strain PGR-13 was classified as the variant of Candida valida. It is unique in its ability to ferment well and ready formation of respiratory deficient mutants. The lack of the reverse transsulphuration pathway was found to be a common trait of both PGR-13 and the type strain of Pichia membranaefaciens.
