Abstract excerpt
Labeling with stable isotopes, typically deuterium (D), is powerful tool for studying the functional structure of biomolecules by NMR. Biosynthesis of certain deuterated proteins in microorganisms cultured in deuterium oxide (D(2)O) is an attractive strategy. However, the growth of almost all microorganisms is inhibited at high concentrations of D(2)O. We isolated a mutant of yeast that grows well in D(2)O. The...
