The ift74-1 allele was identified in strain BB12 generated by insertional mutagenesis of strain D10 (CC-124 background) with the 1.7 kb HindIII fragment of pHyg3 (Berthold et al., 2002, Protist). Strain ift74-1 is a product of two backcrosses of BB12 to CC-125. A more complete description of the parental strain is in Brown et al., 2015.
ift74-1 expresses a truncated IFT74 protein lacking 196 aa from its N terminus. It assembles short flagella when maintained in M medium without aeration.
