CC-2378 mbo3 mt+
$30.00
From David Luck, Rockefeller University, May 1989
Phenotype: impaired motility
The mbo3 mutant was induced with ICR191 in the 137c background.
Most cells in a culture of this strain move backwards only, but Luck reported that the population typically also contains many cells with wild-type motility and cells with short, paralyzed flagella. Tam and Lefebvre also noted that this mutant has a leaky phenotype.
