From William Inwood and Sydney Kustu, UC Berkeley, January 2005

Phenotype: inhibitor resistant (methylammonium)

This is a spontaneous methylammonium-resistant mutant isolated in the 4A+ background (CC-4051). CR47 has a 10-bp deletion in exon 5 of the AMT4 gene, leading to a frameshift and a truncated translation product of 357 correct amino acids (terminating in putative transmembrane segment 9) followed by 10 incorrect amino acids. CR47 has an Amt4 null phenotype.
