The intracellular location of carotenoid pigments in the yeast- phase of Wangiella dermatitidis

The intracellular location of carotenoid pigments in the yeast- phase of Wangiella dermatitidis

Carotenoids in W. dermatitids were found to be associated with membranes of lipid globules and/or proteins dispersed in the lipids in the yeast-phase of the organism. The lipid globules increase in size and the pigment concentrations increase with age of the cell. Electron micrographs show these org...
