Table 1 Growth characteristics of V5 and V5.TM6*P at 30°C starting at 50 g/L glucose.

From: Transcriptome analysis of a respiratory Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain suggests the expression of its phenotype is glucose insensitive and predominantly controlled by Hap4, Cat8 and Mig1

  1. Yields were calculated as g product (dry weight, ethanol or glucose, respectively)/g of glucose consumed/catabolised for V5 and V5.TM6*P, cultured as described in 'Materials and Methods'. The numbers in parentheses are the standard error of the mean, together with the number of replicates (n) for each experiment. The seemingly low biomass yield for V5 was measured after consumption of all glucose. Yield increases as all ethanol and glycerol are consumed during subsequent respiratory growth.
