Abstract excerpt
We developed the alkane and fatty-acid utilizing yeast Candida tropicalis as a host for DNA transformations. The system is based on an auxotrophic mutant host of C. tropicalis which is defective in orotidine monophosphate decarboxylase (ura3). The ura3 host was isolated by mutagenesis and a double-selection procedure that combined nystatin enrichment selection and 5-fluoro-orotic acid resistance selection. As a...
