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...
