1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells containing a deletion of TRK1, the gene encoding the high affinity potassium transporter, retain only low affinity uptake of this ion and consequently lose the ability to grow in media containing low levels (0.2 mM) of potassium. Potassium Trk1p Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
2 Using a trk1 delta strain, we selected spontaneous Trk+ pseudorevertants that regained the ability to grow on low concentrations of potassium. Potassium Trk1p Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
3 Dominant RPD2 mutations and recessive rpd1 and rpd3 mutations confer increased potassium uptake in trk1 delta cells. Potassium Trk1p Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
