Sodium phosphate enhancement of starch hydrolysis by a diastatic strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Sodium phosphate enhancement of starch hydrolysis by a diastatic strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Low concentrations of inorganic phosphate stimulate by up to 2-fold aerobic growth of S. cerevisiae N.C.Y.C. 625 in starch medium. No such stimulation of growth is seen in a glucose medium. Enhanced growth on starch appears to result from increased secretion of glucoamylase (1,4- alpha -D-glucan glu...

Description
Summary:Low concentrations of inorganic phosphate stimulate by up to 2-fold aerobic growth of S. cerevisiae N.C.Y.C. 625 in starch medium. No such stimulation of growth is seen in a glucose medium. Enhanced growth on starch appears to result from increased secretion of glucoamylase (1,4- alpha -D-glucan glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.3.) into the culture medium.
