Galactose transport in Kluyveromyces lactis: major role of the glucose permease Hgt1.

abstract：:The presence of 1.0 M KCl or NaCl during growth of Debaryomyces hansenii results in increased ethanol production. An additional increase of fermentation was observed when the salts were also present during incubation under nongrowing conditions. Extracts of cells grown in the presence of salt showed increased alcohol ...
