A specific inhibiting effect of CO_2 on cell division in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Meyen) was shown. Two strains of S. cerevisiae were grown in chemically-defined media in specially-designed pressure chambers equipped with sensitive pressure-measuring devices. The chambers were pressurized with 40 psi of N_2 or CO_2. Inhibition of cell division and of production of new buds was not caused by N_2 but was caused by CO_2 when either endogenously produced or added. In contrast, metabolic production of CO_2 was unaffected by endogenously-produced pressures which totally inhibited cell division. Bud formation and new-cell formation (cell division) were almost totally inhibited by 40 psi of added CO_2 when compared with aerated culture. The DNA content per cell, however, was nearly twice as great in the CO_2-treated cultures as In the controls. Thus inhibition of cell division in S. cerevisiae must occur by some mechanism other than by inhibition of DNA replication.
