Abstract: | The effect of ammonium concentration in the medium on †5,7-sterol synthesis was examined. Higher concentrations of this nitrogen source in the medium decreased sterol synthesis and
accumulation during growth. An intermittent supply with ammonium resulted in a proportional synthesis of †5,7-sterols and biomass. The carbon to nitrogen molar ratio of ≧ 40 allowed the maximum accumulation of †5,7-sterols with our strain of baker’s yeast. |
