Ethanol and cycloheximide inhibited the function of the ammonium transport system in growing cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. ellipsoideus measured as methylamine uptake. The effect was reversible with ethanol and irreversible with the antibiotic. The kinetic data are consistent with a reduction of the number of active carrier molecules located in the plasma membrane. In contrast, neither ethanol nor cycloheximide affected the specific rate of fructose uptake.
