Effect of ammonium ions on activity of hydrolytic enzymes during sporulation of yeast.

Abstract

The addition of 10 mM ammonium sulfate to sporulation medium noncoordinately blocked the increases in protease C, protease B, alpha-mannosidase, and 1,4-amyloglucosidase activities which occur during normal sporulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but had only a minor effect on the 10-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase activity.
