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

topics (OpenAlex): Cellular transport and secretion; Plant Reproductive Biology; Fungal and yeast genetics research
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.
