Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the heme-activated protein complex Hap2/3/4/5 plays a major role in the transcription of genes involved in respiration. Thus, overexpression of HAP4 has been shown to result in a 10% increase in the respiratory capacity. Here the physiology of a HAP4-deleted S. cerevisiae strain was investigated, and we found that the hap4delta S. cerevisiae exhibited poor growth on ethanol, although...
