Abstract excerpt
Three recently isolated catalase-negative mutants of Hansenula polymorpha lost the ability to grow on methanol but grew in media containing glucose, ethanol or glycerol. Their incubation in a medium with methanol resulted in an accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and cell death. During growth of a catalase-negative mutant in chemostat on a mixture of methanol and glucose, neither H2O2 accumulation nor cell death...
