From Arminio Boschetti, University of Bern, August 2001

Phenotype: carotenoid deficient; requires arginine

The pg-101 or lor1 mutant was isolated by M. Tellenbach in Boschetti’s laboratory, by selecting cells with altered color after UV mutagenesis of an arg2 strain (CCAP 11/32f, Levine arg2 mt+). Tellenbach characterized it as deficient in loroxanthin. Subsequently Chunayev et al. showed that it was deficient in alpha cyclase, resulting in failure to produce the carotenoid epsilon rings.

Please see CC-2420 for additional information on this mutant.

This strain should be kept in dim light.
