Abstract: | Substrate-induced H+ extrusion was studied in dilute (0.04–0.5 mg dry mass per mL) unbuffered suspensions ofS. cerevisiae. Wild-type strains 196-2 and K and 196-2-derived mutants altered in hexose transport, glucosephosphate isomerase, mannosephosphate
isomerase, pyruvate kinase, and arho petite mutant were characterized as to growth, biochemical and H+-pumping properties. Their H+ extrusion differed, depending on strain, growth conditions, and the H+-efflux-inducing substrate; the efficiency of the process depended critically on the balance between substrate uptake, its
dissimilation, attendant mobilization of energy sources and build-up of acidity sources in the cell, and the energy supply
to H+excreting systems. |
