Methionine adenosyltransferase and ethionine resistance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

J E Mertz, K D Spence.   

Abstract

The methionine adenosyltransferase is repressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae during growth in the presence of excess methionine. The relationship of this repression to the level of intracellular S-adenosylmethionine is discussed. In conjunction with these studies, an ethionine-resistant mutant has been investigated which has a low level of methionine adenosyltransferase under all conditions tested. The mechanism of ethionine resistance in the latter strain apparently depends on its inability to form large quantities of intracellular S-adenosylethionine. With respect to the methionine adenosyltransferase, there is no apparent interaction between ethionine-resistant and ethionine-sensitive alleles when both are present in the heterozygous diploid.
