Abstract excerpt
Cytosol polyphosphates (polyPs) are the main phosphate (P(i)) reserve in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this work, the participation of cytosol polyPs and exopolyphosphatases in maintenance of P(i) homeostasis under P(i) deficit in the cultivation medium has been studied in different strains of S. cerevisiae. The growth of yeast strains with inactivated genes PPX1 and PPN1 encoding the yeast...
