Dihydrofolate Reductase in Pediococcus cerevisiae Strains Susceptible and Resistant to Amethopterin
AUTOR(ES)
Mandelbaum-Shavit, Frederika
RESUMO
A mutant strain of Pediococcus cerevisiae was obtained which had 1,000-fold greater resistance to amethopterin than the P. cerevisiae/PteGlu strain. The dihydrofolate reductase level of the mutant was about 60-fold higher than that of the parent. The mutant accumulated folate, though less efficiently than its parent.
