Abstract excerpt
The transfer of glycerophospholipids between microsomes and mitochondria, and from internal membranes to the plasma membrane of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was characterized. Cellular energy production was found to be essential for intracellular translocation of phospholipids, but neither a membrane potential nor an intact cytoskeleton are required for this process. Using the temperature-sensitive mutant strain...
