CC-2002 arg10 mt+

From Rene Matagne, University of Liege, May 1986

Phenotype: requires arginine (suppressed)

The original arg10 mutant, induced using ethyl methanesulfonate by Loppes and collaborators, was deficient in acetylornithine glutamate transacetylase, and required arginine, citrulline or ornithine for growth. Unfortunately CC-2002, which is our only arg10 strain, has acquired a suppressor and is no longer auxotrophic. We are trying to recover the original mutant.
