Mutations in erg4 affect the sensitivity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to medium-chain fatty acids.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 15 Apr 2002

McDonough Virginia, Stukey Joseph, Cavanagh Trudy

Abstract excerpt

We have found that the medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) undecanoic acid (11:0), 10-undecenoic acid (11:1 Delta 10), and lauric acid (12:0) can affect the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in a dose-dependent manner. The principal effect was a longer lag phase in MCFA-containing medium, although higher concentrations of 11:1 Delta 10 inhibited growth. Their relative order of inhibitory action was 11:1 Delta...
