The changes in cyanide-resistant and SHAM-sensitive respiration have been examined in the cell cycle of yeast cells synchronized by nutrient starvation. The changing of the cyanide-resistant respiration of cells proliferating in synchronizing fermentor, where the glucose concentration was continuously decreasing, was associated with the stage in cell cycle rather than with the alteration of environment. The cyanide-resistant alternative respiration may be attributed characteristic of a certain part of the cell cycle termed "A" phase. This hypothesis is supported by the observation that in cultures proliferating, synchronously under constant conditions, the cyanide-resistant respiration changes periodically and reaches its maximum in the "A" phase after the cell division.

D002175	Candida	A genus of yeast-like mitosporic Saccharomycetales fungi characterized by producing yeast cells, mycelia, pseudomycelia, and blastophores. It is commonly part of the normal flora of the skin, mouth, intestinal tract, and vagina, but can cause a variety of infections, including CANDIDIASIS; ONYCHOMYCOSIS; VULVOVAGINAL CANDIDIASIS; and CANDIDIASIS, ORAL (THRUSH).

D002453	Cell Cycle	The complex series of phenomena, occurring between the end of one CELL DIVISION and the end of the next, by which cellular material is duplicated and then divided between two daughter cells. The cell cycle includes INTERPHASE, which includes G0 PHASE; G1 PHASE; S PHASE; and G2 PHASE, and CELL DIVISION PHASE.
