Abstract excerpt
The four enzymatic steps in the conversion of alpha-ketoisovaleriate to leucine were examined in the wild type and in 13 leucine auxotrophic strains of Candida maltosa. The genetic lesions in the auxotrophs, involve at least five different loci and are correlated with three enzymatic steps. This...
