[Changes in proteinase A and B activity during glucose repression in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae]. 1982

L A Novikova, and A S Zubatov, and V N Luzikov

The divisible and indivisible yeast S. cerevisiae were subjected to glucose repression by increasing the glucose content in the growth medium up to 10%. Under these conditions the total activities of both proteinases did not change significantly, while those of free (i.e. not bound to natural inhibitors) proteinases were increased manyfold. This effect is probably due to liberation of the proteinases from the vacuoles and digestion of cytosolic proteinase inhibitors.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007700	Kinetics	The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.

D004794	Enzyme Repression	The interference in synthesis of an enzyme due to the elevated level of an effector substance, usually a metabolite, whose presence would cause depression of the gene responsible for enzyme synthesis.	Repression, Enzyme
D005947	Glucose	A primary source of energy for living organisms. It is naturally occurring and is found in fruits and other parts of plants in its free state. It is used therapeutically in fluid and nutrient replacement.
