Abstract excerpt
The anaerobic performance of gpd1 delta and gpd2 delta mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was characterized and compared to that of a wild-type strain under well-controlled conditions by using a high-performance bioreactor. There was a 40% reduction in glycerol level in the gpd2 delta mutant compared to the wild-type. Also the gpd1 delta mutant showed a slight decrease in glycerol formation but to a much lesser...
