From Pinfen Yang, Marquette University, August 2022

This strain was recovered from UV mutagenesis by Ritsu Kamiya at Tokyo University. An MRC1 transposon is inserted in the 3’ UTR of the RSP16 (HSP40) gene. 

Most cells have jerky flagella and small fraction of cells are motile. A trace amount of RSP16 is detected by Western blots of pf33 axonemes.
