Abstract excerpt
The allele scd 1 is a recessive chromosomal mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that eliminates Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD-1) activity. SOD-1- strains are unable to grow in 100% O2 in rich medium and are methionine and lysine auxotrophic when grown in air (Bilinski, T., Krawiec, Z., Liczmanski, A., and Litwinska, J. (1985) Biochem.
