Abstract excerpt
Nitric oxide is known to be a messenger in animals and plants. Catalase may regulate the concentration of intracellular *NO. In this study, yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were treated with 1-20 mM S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), a nitric oxide donor, which decreased yeast survival in a concentration-dependent manner. In the wild-type strain (YPH250), 20 mM GSNO reduced survival by 32%. The strain defective in...
