Furfural tolerance assay of S. cerevisiae siz1Δ mutants in SC medium containing 0.8 g/L furfural

Strain Maximum specific growth rate (h -1 )
HZ848
0.15 ± 0.01
HZ848-siz1Δ
0.19 ± 0.00
W303a
0.19 ± 0.01
W303a-siz1Δ 0.30 ± 0.01

The maximum specific growth rates of different S. cerevisiae siz1Δ mutants are statistically significant over their corresponding wild-type (P <0.05) as determined by the Student t-test. Results are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3).
