Abstract excerpt

The sterol composition of nystatin-sensitive and nystatin-resistant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was being studied by gas-liquid chromatography and mass-spectroscopy. The synthesis of ergosterol is completely suppressed in polyene-resistant mutants. Three sterols derived from cholesterol w...
