Abstract excerpt
Mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that have a decreased peptide uptake ability were isolated from sake yeast. A copper medium containing copper sulfate, histidylleucine and sodium lactate as a carbon source was used for the isolation. One mutant showed a decreased peptide uptake ability due to PTR2 transcriptional repression, but for other mutants, the decrease was not due to the transcriptional repression. The...
