Screening of Respiration Deficiency Mutants of Yeasts （Saccharomyces cerevisiae） Induced by Ion Irradiation and mtDNA Restriction Analysis
A screen of respiration deficiency mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae induced by 5.19 MeV/u 22Ne5+ ion irradiation is studied. Some respiration deficiency mutants, which present white colony phenotype on condition of selective culture of TTC medium, were obtained. A new and simplified method based on mtDNA restriction analysis is used, and mitochondrial restriction fragments are easily observed by agarose gel electrophoresis. In this way, we found that there are many obvious differences in RFLP of mtDNA between the wild yeasts and the respiration deficiency mutants. As shown in Fig.1, compared with the wild yeasts, the respiration deficiency mutants have large deletions and new restriction patterns in mtDNA.
