RESUMO
Utilization of l-malic acid by yeast strain Hansenula anomala IGC 4380 is subject to glucose repression. Derepressed mutants were obtained with UV light by use of the nonmetabolizable glucose analog 2-deoxyglucose as a selective agent. Three mutant strains degraded l-malic acid in the presence of up to 30% (wt/vol) glucose and are of potential interest for the biological deacidification of grape must. The mutant strains, as compared with the parent strain, displayed inverse diauxy in glucose-malate medium, glucose being metabolized only after malate consumption had been completed.
