Potassium translocation in yeast mitochondria and its relationship to ergostrol biosynthesis

Potassium translocation in yeast mitochondria and its relationship to ergostrol biosynthesis

R B Bailey et al. J Bacteriol. 1975 May.

Abstract

The energy-dependent transport and accumulation of K+ in respiring mitochondria has been found to inhibit the S-adenosylmethionine: delta-24-sterol methyltransferase enzyme of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Potassium cation translocation is discussed as a possible regulatory mechanism over the biosynthesis of ergosterol.
