Structural Role of Plasma Membrane Sterols in Osmotic Stress Tolerance of Yeast <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
Yeast <i>S. cerevisiae</i> has been shown to suppress a sterol biosynthesis as a response to hyperosmotic stress. In the case of sodium stress, the failure to suppress biosynthesis leads to an increase in cytosolic sodium. The major yeast sterol, ergosterol, is known to regulate function...
