Scaling exponents for BY4741, atg18Δ, and apl5Δ strains
| Volume |
Surface area |
|||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −rap | +rap | −rap | +rap | |
| BY4741 | 1.3 ± 0.1 | 1.8 ± 0.1 | 1.2 ± 0.1 | 1.3 ± 0.1 |
| atg18Δ | 2.0 ± 0.1 | 2.1 ± 0.1 | 1.5 ± 0.1 | 1.4 ± 0.1 |
| apl5Δ | 1.3 ± 0.1 | 1.9 ± 0.1 | 1.1 ± 0.1 | 1.4 ± 0.04 |
Entries are the slope and the standard error of the slope of the linear regression to the log-log plots of measured cell and vacuole sizes. The vacuole-to-cell volume scaling exponents increased with rapamycin treatment in BY4741 and apl5Δ (but not in atg18Δ) due to vacuole fusion.
