Activation of Fatty Acid Synthesis in Cell-free Extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Roberta K. Rasmussen and Harold P. Klein

Exobiology Division, Ames Research Center, NASA, Moffett Field, California 94035

ABSTRACT

Fatty acid synthesis from acetate in extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain LK2G12 was shown to be stimulated by {alpha}-glycerophosphate and citrate, and by a number of compounds related to them. Magnesium was shown to stimulate fatty acid synthesis from acetyl-coenzyme A but not from malonyl-coenzyme A, thus indicating the site of stimulation of fatty acid synthesis to be the acetyl-coenzyme A step.
