  • Title: Observations on the mitochondrial reticulum in the yeast Candida utilis as revealed by freeze-fracture electron microscopy.
    Author: Keyhani E.
    Journal: J Cell Sci; 1980 Dec; 46():289-97. PubMed ID: 7194878.
    Abstract:
    Freeze-fracture of Candida utilis yeast cells grown to early logarithmic phase (5 h) and stationary phase (24 h) revealed a branched mitochondrial reticulum both in longitudinal and transverse cross-fracture studies. In contrast, the longitudinal and transverse sections of permanganate-fixed cells showed that the small ovoid or spherical mitochondria were located at the periphery of the cell, without formation of a reticulum. Data indicate that the separate mitochondrial profiles seen in thin sections of permanganate-fixed yeast cells are not separate round or ovoid mitochondria, but rather are cross-sections of the mitochondrial reticulum.
