Differences in crystal violet uptake and cation-induced death among yeast sterol mutants.
Yeast sterol mutants exposed to crystal violet demonstrated greater dye uptake than the wild type. In addition, exposure for 10 min to hypertonic cation solutions showed a greater decrease in cell viability for mutants than for wild type.
