Abstract excerpt
The abc1(-)/coq8(-) gene deletion respiratory-deficient mutant NBp17 of fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe displayed a phenotypic fermentation pattern with enhanced production of glycerol and acetate, and also possessed oxidative stress-sensitive phenotypes to H(2)O(2), menadione, tBuOOH, Cd(2+), and chromate in comparison with its parental respiratory-competent strain HNT. As a consequence of internal...
