Correlation between polyploidy and auxotrophic segregation in the imperfect yeast Candida albicans.

abstract：:To circumvent the permeability barrier of its outer membrane, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has evolved a series of specific porins. These channels have binding sites for related classes of molecules that facilitate uptake under nutrient-limited conditions. Here, we report on the identification of a 19-member family of porin...
