CC-5134 trk2-1 act1 hkr1 mt- [10KDP1]

From David Polley, Wabash College, July 2015

Phenotype: requires high potassium concentration

This strain requires high potassium (concentrations greater than 1mM) for growth. Wild-type growth rates require 10mM K. Use agarose solidified medium when testing for phenotype on plate cultures.
This mutant was UV induced in a trk2-1 act1 recombinant produced from a cross between CC-1715 (pf18 nic2 act1 mt-) and CC-3832. Phenotype expression requires trk2-1 background, but phenotype expression in trk3 or trk1 background has not been tested.
