title: Enzyme activities during early ascosporulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
abstract: 1. Several enzyme activities were examined during the initial sporulating phase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 2. Catalase activity increased obviously after transfer to sporulation medium. 3. Catalase is probably considered to play an essential role in sporulation. 4. Both activities of inorganic pyrophosphatase and glycerol-2-phosphatase decreased. 5. Conditions necessary for sporulation were suggested.
