Abstract excerpt

Orthovanadate-resistant mutants of diploid yeast Candida albicans were isolated by using two step mutational process. Such mutants had altered plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase activity. Based on the levels of PM-ATPase activity, these mutants could be grouped into two categories; one group included th...
