Abstract excerpt
Pi in the medium relieved the toxicity of arsenate against cellular growth of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. To investigate the relationship between intracellular P contents and arsenate resistance, we determined the intracellular P contents of arsenate-sensitive and arsenate-resistant mutants, which had been generated by random insertional mutagenesis. All 13 arsenate-resistant mutants showed higher P contents than...
