Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is a linear polymer of orthophosphate and has many
biological functions in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. To investigate polyP …

Purified fractions of cytosol, vacuoles, nuclei, and mitochondria of Saccharomyces
cerevisiae possessed inorganic polyphosphates with chain lengths characteristic of each …

Candida tropicalis pK 233 exhibited marked morphological changes depending upon
carbon sources for growth. Although the yeast showed a typical yeast-like development …

The Ррх1 exopolyphosphatase of yeast is a constitutive protein localized predominantly in
the cytoplasm. The purified enzyme hydrolyzes inorganic polyphosphates with high activity; …

Cell surface adhesion is considered an essential step in the spread, infection and
persistence of Candida yeasts in the host. Their ability to adhere on biotic and abiotic …

The paper describes cytological mechanism of adaptation of yeasts to assimilation of
aliphatic hydrocarbons added to a growth medium as a sole source of carbon. The process …

The intracellular polysaccharide (Ps) content of Candida rugosa grown on non‐hydrocarbon
and hydrocarbon substrates were determined. C. rugosa was grown in a mineral medium …

The growth of Candida maltosa on hydrocarbons (dodecane and hexadecane) was
influenced by adding various natural and synthetic surfactants. Microbial adhesion to the …

The cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae accumulate inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) when
reinoculated on a phosphate-containing medium after phosphorus starvation. Total polyP …

Catalase activities of the cells growing on n-alkanes of various strains of Candida yeasts wer
markedly higher than those of the cells growing on glucose, ethanol or acetate. In …
