Yeast Tolerance to Chromium Depends on Extracellular Chromate Reduction and Cr(III) Chelation

Yeast Tolerance to Chromium Depends on Extracellular Chromate Reduction and Cr(III) Chelation

The sensitivity of the yeast Pichia guilliermondii ATCC 201911 (L2) to Cr(VI) and Cr(III) has been investigated. This yeast was demonstrated to have much higher resistance to Cr(III), compared to Cr(VI). At chromate level of 2.0 mM, an expanded lag phase in growth was observed, followed by the activ...
