Dihydrofolate reductase in Pediococcus cerevisiae strains susceptible and resistant to amethopterin

Dihydrofolate reductase in Pediococcus cerevisiae strains susceptible and resistant to amethopterin

F Mandelbaum-Shavit et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1974 Sep.

Abstract

A mutant strain of Pediococcus cerevisiae was obtained which had 1,000-fold greater resistance to amethopterin than the P. cerevisiae/PteGlu strain. The dihydrofolate reductase level of the mutant was about 60-fold higher than that of the parent. The mutant accumulated folate, though less efficiently than its parent.
