Abstract excerpt

Null cho1 mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are incapable of phosphatidyl-serine synthesis. They were more susceptible than wild-type strains to 100 mM CaCl2, 3 mM ZnCl2 or 1 mM MnCl2, but not to MgCl2 nor KCl. They were also susceptible to high concentrations of basic amino acids, L-lysine and...
