Abstract excerpt
Ethanol-sensitive mutants (esl to es10) were isolated from sake yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae SY-32. These mutants were unable to grow at 7% ethanol at which the wild type strain SY-32 does grow. The mutants had a variety of fermentation rates and viabilities in the presence of ethanol. The gene ERG6, complementing the ethanol-sensitive mutation of es5, was cloned from an SY-32 gene library. ERG6 encodes...
