cultural_requirements: Acetate mutants ace-1 through ace-7 are auxotrophs that grow on 0.3% sodium acetate, as do suc mutants (which often grow better on acetate than on succinate). A carbon source is also needed. Most ace mutants grow better when the carbon source is maltose rather than sucrose (578). Acetate mutants, except ace-1 and ace-5, can grow on Tweens as the sole carbon source (S. Brody, personal communication). The mutants differ in their ability to grow on complex media. Unlinked genes ace-2, -3, and -4 are involved with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (769). A separate set of acetate mutations called ac-1, -2, -3, 4, and -5(1034) were not mapped and are not available for testing for allelism with ace-1 through ace-7. General reference: 578.
