Abstract excerpt
Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses both a cytoplasmic and a mitochondrial fumarate reductase, encoded by FRDS1 and OSM1, respectively. While previous studies have shown that mutants lacking FRDS1 and OSM1 cannot grow under anaerobiosis (Arikawa et al., 1998), the physiological role of fumarate reductase (FR) remains poorly understood. Here, we report that an osm1 frds1 mutant is unable to grow anaerobically, even...
