Investigation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphate metabolism. Cells starved for phosphate, cells grown with intermediate and high phosphate concentrations, and PHO4 mutant cells examined.
Inorganic phosphate is an essential nutrient required by organisms for growth. During phosphate starvation, Saccharomyces cerevisiae activates the phosphate signal transduction (PHO) pathway leading to the expression of the secreted acid phosphatase, PHO5. The fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pomb...
