Glucose transport in nongrowing yeast.
The inducible, nonenergy-requiring glucose transport system of the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis is inactivated upon starving cells of glucose by (1) transferring logarithmic phase glucose-grown cells to synthetic medium containing a nonglycolytic carbon source, and (2) upon transition of logarithmic phase glucose-grown cells to stationary phase. The steady-state accumulation of nonmetabolizeable 6-deoxyglucose and the apparent Km of transport of 6-deoxyglucose is the same in stationary phase cells and in logarithmic phase cells. The rate of transport is lower in the nongrowing cells. Restoration of activity requires energy and protein synthesis as well as inducer.
