Abstract excerpt
Two temperature-conditional secretory mutations, sec1 and sec5, cause the accumulation of post-Golgi vesicles when strains containing these mutations are grown at 37 degrees C. In addition to accumulating vesicles, the mutants do not esterify free sterol on rich media at the restrictive temperature. It is the high level of inositol in the media that causes this condition in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, not...
