Abstract excerpt
The respiratory competency of a yeast strain devoid of mitochondrial introns is quite normal. However, it may be asked whether intron-encoded proteins participate in metabolisms other than those of mitochondrial introns. Using strains without mitochondrial introns we have answered two questions....
