Abstract excerpt
A mutant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (NR 6), which can be associated with a reduction in the accumulation of Mg2+ has been isolated. This mutant strain displays resistance to both Ni2+ and Co2+, but not, however, towards Cu2+, Cd2+, Mn2+, Zn2+ and Cr2O7(2-). Both Co2+ and Ni2+ uptake by the mutant strain is less than by the wild type (CMR-50). The inhibitory effects of Ni2+ and Co2+ on the growth of both...
