Chlamydomonas Genetics Center, Duke University, 1982

Phenotype: motility impaired

This strain derives from a series of crosses in 1982, tracing back to CC-607 pf5, a strain from Levine’s laboratory that is no longer in the collection. Yang et al. (2009) determined that the mutation in this strain is an allele at the FLA14 locus, affecting the LC8 protein, and renamed it fla14-3. They also reported that CC-1028, also designated pf5, has a wild-type FLA14 gene and must therefore represent a different mutation.

This strain has the wild type alleles at the NIT1 and NIT2 loci and can grow on nitrate.
