TLDR
The dynamic process of cell wall formation was clarified through the study of the protoplasts, and it was found that β-1,3-glucan, β,1,6- glucan and α-1+, as well as α-galactomannan, are ingredients of the cell wall.

Ultrastructure of methanol-utilizing yeast cells: appearance of microbodies in relation to high catalase activity
TLDR
Nine strains of methanol-utilizing yeasts belonging to the genera Candida, Hansenula, Kloeckera, Pichia, and Torulopsis were examined with respect to the interrelationship between their catalase content and ultrastructure and several morphological differences were observed.
Alcohol oxidases of Kloeckera sp. and Hansenula polymorpha. Catalytic properties and subunit structures.
TLDR
Alcohol oxidase (alcohol: oxygen oxidoreductase) of a thermophilic methanol-utilizing yeast, Hansenula polymorpha DL-1, was isolated in crystalline form and was more stable to heat than was the enzyme of Kloeckera sp.polymorpha, compatible with the difference in growth temperatures for both yeasts.
Development of Microbodies in the yeast Kloeckera growing on methanol
TLDR
Though the number of microbodies did not change during prolonged cultivation, their size became larger with the passage of cultivation time, and the activities of catalase and alcohol oxidase were confirmed in the particulate fractions throughout the cultivation period.
Purification and Properties of the Catalase of Bakers' Yeast
TLDR
Catalase from bakers' yeast has been purified to homogeneity in the analytical ultracentrifuge and in gel electrophoresis and its catalytic and spectroscopic properties were similar to those of catalases from other species.
Microbody of Methanol-Grown Yeasts
TLDR
Localization of a flavin-dependent alcohol oxidase as well as characteristic microbody enzymes (catalase and d-amino acid oxidase) were ascertained in the isolated microbodies, whereas formaldehyde and formate dehydrogenases were detected in the cytoplasmic region.
