Effects of Long-Term Cultivation on Medium with Alpha-Ketoglutarate Supplementation on Metabolic Processes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Table 1

Wet biomass and levels of α-dicarbonyl compounds (DC) and triacylglycerides (TAG) in S. cerevisiae cells during prolonged cultivation in the control or 10 mM AKG-supplemented medium.

Parameter	Growth conditions
	Control			10 mM AKG
	18 h	42 h	7 d	18 h	42 h	7 d
Wet biomass (mg/10^8 cells)	6.90 ± 0.81	NS	NS	7.90 ± 0.27	NS	NS
TAG, μg/10^8 cells	16.5 ± 1.1	15.2 ± 2.3	15.2 ± 1.6	15.6 ± 1.7	18.5 ± 3.1	16.7 ± 2.5
DC, nmol glyoxal equivalents/mg protein	NS	NS	7.01 ± 0.33	NS	NS	5.53 ± 0.38

Results are shown as means ± SEM ( = 6–8). different from respective control values with using Student’s -test. NS: not studied.
