Abstract
Cells of the yeast Lodderomyces elongisporus, precultured on glycerol, were incubated with long-chain n-alkanes. The results whow that monoterminal alkane oxidation is the main pathway of alkane degradation in the investigated yeast. The amount of diterminal activity is negligible, while subterminal degradation did not occur at all.
