CC-4198 lts1-204::Rh1-GFP [Kustu CR-508]

$30.00

From Corinne Yoshihara, Sydney Kustu lab, University of California, Berkeley, April 2008

This strain was derived by transformation of lts1-204 with an Rh1-GFP fusion construct containing the intact Rh1 gene. The lts1 mutant was used as a recipient in order to eliminate chlorophyll fluorescence, which interfered with detection of GFP.
