General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction construction of an Schizosaccharomyces pombe dps-deficient strain. This disruptant is not able to synthesize ubiquinone and has no detectable decaprenyl diphosphate synthase activity. The Sschizosaccharomyces pombe dps-deficient strain could not grow on either rich medium supplemented with glycerol or on minimal medium supplemented with glucose. The dps-deficient strain requires cysteine or glutathione for full growth on the minimal medium. In addition, the dps-deficient strain is more sensitive to H2O2 and Cu2+ than the wild type Schizosaccharomyces pombe
