Abstract excerpt

A new gene (SUT1) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, implicated in sterol uptake, was isolated from a yeast genomic library constructed in a high-copy-number vector by virtue of conferring resistance to fenpropimorph in medium supplemented with ergosterol. The high expression of SUT1 in sterol auxotrop...
