FEN2: a gene implicated in the catabolite repression-mediated regulation of ergosterol biosynthesis in yeast.

Yeast (Chichester, England) - 1 May 1996

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated and characterized a pleiotropic recessive mutation. fen2-1, that causes resistance to fenpropimorph and a low level of ergosterol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ergosterol synthesis in the mutant strain was 5.5-fold slower than in the wild type; however, in vitro assays of the enzymes involved in ergosterol biosynthesis could not account for this low rate in the mutant. The mutant phenotype was...
