In the studies of biogenesis of pyridoxal by Candida albicans 4888,the availability of glyoxylic acid as a source of carbon was investigated. In the case of glyoxylic acid as a sole source of carbon did not supported the growth of yeast but glyoxylic acid plus acetic acid caused the growth of yeast and the remarkable production of pyridoxal was observed. It was supposed that the main intermediate pathway of biogenesis of pyridoxal from organic or amino acids by Candida albicans 4888 go through the glyoxylic acid cycle.
