Abstract

The unassigned open reading frame YDL142c was identified to code for cardiolipin synthase, Cls1p. A cls1 deletion strain is viable on glucose, galactose, ethanol, glycerol and lactate containing media, although the growth rate on non‐fermentable carbon sources is decreased. Mitochondria of the cls1 mutant are devoid of cardiolipin but accumulate the cardiolipin precursor phosphatidylglycerol when grown on non‐fermentable carbon sources. Specific activity of phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase in cls1 is reduced to 30–75% of the wild‐type level. Amounts of mitochondrial cytochromes and activity of cytochrome c oxidase, however, are not affected in the cls1 deletion strain. Collectively, these data indicate that cardiolipin is not essential for aerobic growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
