Endopolygalacturonase genes and enzymes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Kluyveromyces marxianus.

abstract：:As yeast colonies ceased growth, cells at the edge of these colonies transited from the cell division cycle into meiosis at high efficiency. This transition occurred remarkably synchronously and only at late stages of colony maturation. The transition occurred on medium containing acetate or low concentrations of gluc...
