Abstract excerpt
Flocculation characteristics of 42 flocculent strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were examined. Two entirely distinct 'lectin-like' mechanisms of flocculation were distinguished by sugar, salt, and low pH inhibitions, protease sensitivity, and selective expression of flocculation. One group, termed Flo1 phenotype, was inhibited by mannopyranoses and contained all strains bearing known genes affecting...
