| Popis: | Summary Using labeled arachidonic acid as prostaglandin precursor, thin layer chromatography, and scintillation counting, we have found evidence that two prostaglandins, PGE 2 and PGF 2α , are produced during ascosporogenesis in Dipodascopsis tothii . We have also demonstrated that a small yeast population density in liquid medium is essential for ascosporogenesis and prostaglandin production in this yeast. |
