Use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing beta-galactosidase to screen for antimycotic agents directed against yeast cell wall biosynthesis and possible application to pathogenic fungi.

P G Zaworski1, G S Gill.   

Abstract

Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing beta-galactosidase was used to develop a screen for compounds active against formation of the yeast cell wall. The screen detailed here is based on the release of beta-galactosidase from cells which had received an osmotic shock.
