Induction of Phenotypes Resembling CuZn-Superoxide Dismutase Deletion in Wild-Type Yeast Cells:  An in Vivo Assay for the Role of Superoxide in the Toxicity of Redox-Cycling Compounds

Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) lacking the enzyme CuZn-superoxide dismutase (sod1Δ) display a large number of dioxygen sensitive phenotypes, such as amino acid auxotrophies, sensitivity to elevated temperatures, and sensitivity to 100% dioxygen, which are attributed to superoxide stress. Such cell...
