Alterations in the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae induced by the alpha sex factor or a mutation in the cell cycle.

Abstract excerpt

We performed experiments in parallel to study the rate of synthesis of cell wall polysaccharides and the activity of glycosyl transferases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae after arrest of a cdc 28 mutant in G1 phase by either addition of alpha-factor or transfer to the non-permissive temperature. Both effectors brought about similar time-dependent increases in the rate of synthesis and deposition of the cell wall...
