Ozimek, Paulina, Dijk, Ralf Van, Latchev, Kantcho, Gancedo, Carlos, Wang, Dong Yuan, Klei, Ida J. Van Der, ...

Hansenula polymorpha ass3 mutants are characterized by the accumulation of inactive alcohol oxidase (AO) monomers in the cytosol, whereas other peroxisomal matrix proteins are normally activated and...

The lactate-proton symport of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is encoded by JEN1 (1999)

Casal, Margarida, Paiva, Sandra, Andrade, Raquel P., Gancedo, Carlos, Leão, Cecília

A mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae deficient in the lactate-proton symport was isolated. Transformation of the mutant with a yeast genomic library allowed the isolation of the gene JEN1 that...

In situ study of the glycolytic pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (1978)

Gancedo, Carlos, Bañuelos, Marcelino

1. The problem of the influence of protein concentration on the kinetic parameters of enzymes has been approached studying the glycolytic enzymes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae in permeabilized cells...

Isolation of the MIG1 Gene from Candida albicans and Effects of Its Disruption on Catabolite Repression

Zaragoza, Oscar, Rodríguez, Cristina, Gancedo, Carlos

We have cloned a Candida albicans gene (CaMIG1) that encodes a protein homologous to the DNA-binding protein Mig1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ScMig1). The C. albicans Mig1 protein (CaMig1) differs...

Disruption of the Candida albicans TPS1 Gene Encoding Trehalose-6-Phosphate Synthase Impairs Formation of Hyphae and Decreases Infectivity†

Zaragoza, Oscar, Blazquez, Miguel A., Gancedo, Carlos

The TPS1 gene from Candida albicans, which encodes trehalose-6-phosphate synthase, has been cloned by functional complementation of a tps1 mutant from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In contrast with the...

Hexokinase Regulates Kinetics of Glucose Transport and Expression of Genes Encoding Hexose Transporters in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Petit, Thomas, Diderich, Jasper A., Kruckeberg, Arthur L., Gancedo, Carlos, Van Dam, Karel

Glucose transport kinetics and mRNA levels of different glucose transporters were determined in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains expressing different sugar kinases. During exponential growth on...

Inactivation of 1,6-Diphosphatase by Glucose in Yeast

Gancedo, Carlos

Fructose-1,6-diphosphatase was derepressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by incubation in media containing non-sugar carbon sources. Addition of glucose to a derepressed culture led to a rapid loss of...

Mitochondrial Localization of the Mevalonate Pathway Enzyme 3-Hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA Reductase in the Trypanosomatidae

Peña-Diaz, Javier, Montalvetti, Andrea, Flores, Carmen-Lisset, Constán, Aurora, Hurtado-Guerrero, Ramon, De Souza, Wanderley, ...

3-Hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGR) is a key enzyme in the sterol biosynthesis pathway, but its subcellular distribution in the Trypanosomatidae family is somewhat controversial....

Yarrowia lipolytica Mutants Devoid of Pyruvate Carboxylase Activity Show an Unusual Growth Phenotype†

Flores, Carmen-Lisset, Gancedo, Carlos

We have cloned and characterized the gene PYC1, encoding the unique pyruvate carboxylase in the dimorphic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. The protein putatively encoded by the cDNA has a length of 1,192...
