CC-2112 trk1 mt+ [KDP4]

$30.00

From David Polley, Wabash College, June 1987

Phenotype: requires high potassium concentration

This mutant grows slower than wild-type on potassium concentrations less than 0.1mM. Use agarose solidified medium when testing for phenotype on plate cultures. Wild-type growth rates require concentrations greater than 1mM K. Exhibits altered transport kinetics.
This mutant was UV-induced by Polley in CC-125.
