TL;DR: Gas chromatographic analysis of the nonsaponifiable fractions of the various strains showed that the major sterol for all YLR228c and UPC2 combinations was ergosterol, the consensus yeast sterol. (via Semantic Scholar)

1999 journal article

In yeast, upc2-1 confers a decrease in tolerance to LiCl and NaCl, which can be suppressed by the P-type ATPase encoded by ENA2

DNA AND CELL BIOLOGY, 18(2), 133–139.

By: F. Leak n, S. Tove* & L. Parks*

MeSH headings : Adenosine Triphosphatases / genetics; Cholesterol / pharmacokinetics; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Genes, Fungal / genetics; Genetic Complementation Test; Lithium Chloride / pharmacology; Mutation; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / drug effects; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / genetics; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / metabolism; Saccharomyces cerevisiae Proteins; Sodium Chloride / pharmacology; Sterols / pharmacokinetics; Trans-Activators / genetics
TL;DR: Wild-type yeast cells are unable to take up sterols from their growth media under aerobic conditions and are relatively resistant to monovalent cations, but a yeast mutant with a defect in the aerobic exclusion of sterols was found to have increased sensitivity to LiCl and NaCl.

1998 journal article

A calcium-dependent ergosterol mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

CURRENT GENETICS, 34(2), 93–99.

By: J. Crowley n, S. Tove* & L. Parks*

author keywords: ergosterol; antifungal; calcium; fenpropimorph; azole; ERG24 gene
MeSH headings : Antifungal Agents / pharmacology; Calcium / metabolism; Calcium / pharmacology; Culture Media; Ergosterol / analogs & derivatives; Ergosterol / biosynthesis; Ergosterol / genetics; Ergosterol / metabolism; Genes, Fungal; Morpholines / pharmacology; Mutation; Oxidoreductases / genetics; Oxidoreductases / metabolism; Phenotype; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / drug effects; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / genetics; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / metabolism
TL;DR: A novel calcium-dependent phenotype associated with alterations in the ergosterol biosynthetic pathway in yeast is described and reduction of yeast growth with an azole inhibitor of the C-14 sterol de-methylase was also modulated by an excess of calcium ions in the culture medium.

1997 journal article

A conditional sterol esterification defect in yeast having either a SEC1 or SEC5 mutation in the secretory pathway

Yeast, 13(5), 449–462.

By: M. Tomeo n, L. Palermo n, S. Tove n & L. Parks n

TL;DR: Two temperature‐conditional secretory mutations, sec1 and sec5, cause the accumulation of post‐Golgi vesicles when strains containing these mutations are grown at 37°C, and double mutants containing sec6, sec14 or sec18 with either a sec1 or sec5 mutation have normal esterification levels.

1997 journal article

Assessment of the essentiality of ERG genes late in ergosterol biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

CURRENT GENETICS, 32(2), 93–99.

By: L. Palermo n, F. Leak n, S. Tove n & L. Parks n

author keywords: ergosterol; ERG genes; yeast; Saccharomyces
MeSH headings : 3-Isopropylmalate Dehydrogenase; Alcohol Oxidoreductases / genetics; Ergosterol / biosynthesis; Genes, Fungal; Methyltransferases / genetics; Mutation; Oxidoreductases / genetics; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / genetics; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / growth & development; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / metabolism; Selection, Genetic
TL;DR: A general trend was seen in which the earlier in the biosynthetic pathway that a mutation occurred, the less able the strain producing the defective sterols could compete with the ergosterol-producing strains. (via Semantic Scholar)

1997 journal article

Requirement of heme to replace the sparking sterol function in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-LIPIDS AND LIPID METABOLISM, 1345(1), 71–76.

MeSH headings : Aminolevulinic Acid / metabolism; Ergosterol / metabolism; Heme / metabolism; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / genetics; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / growth & development; Sterols / biosynthesis
TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that heme, and not a heme precursor, can replace the delta 5-sparking sterol requirement of heme auxotrophic strains of yeast. (via Semantic Scholar)
