Intracellular ATP in a glucosephosphate isomerase mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract

The degree of ATP depletion caused by glucose in a glucosephosphate isomerase-deficient strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was determined. Even in the presence of a sugar normally fermentable by the mutant, the addition of glucose can decrease the intracellular ATP, depending on the competition of the sugars for transport and subsequent phosphorylation. For both parent and mutant cells, a correlation exists between the calculated velocity of ATP formation or ATP consumption during the utilization of different concentrations of sugars and the experimental intracellular ATP level. For initially resting yeast cells, a rate increase of 35 mumol per min per g ATP was calculated to increase the intracellular level of this nucleotide by 1 mumol per g cell mass.
