Development of Microbodies in the yeast Kloeckera growing on methanol.

A number of microbodies appear regularly in methanol-grown yeast cells, but rarely in ethanol- or glucose-grown cells. When one of representative methanol-utilizing yeasts, Kloeckera sp.no. 2201 (also known as Candida bodinii), was cultured on glucose and then transferred into a ...
