Abstract excerpt

We have isolated and studied cytochromic-deficient mutants of the amylolytic yeast Schwanniomyces castellii in order to study the possible contribution of cytochromes to alternative pathways. Three mutants were found, lacking cytochrome b, a + a3, or b and a + a3. All strains presented two altern...
