CC-1026 pf3 mt+

$30.00

From David Luck, Rockefeller University, 1980

Phenotype: impaired motility

The original stock was obtained by Luck from Nam-Hai Chua, who got it from R.P. Levine. This stock is derivative pf3.1B+ from Luck’s lab.

Cells of this strain swim slowly.

This mutation appears to affect the dynein regulatory complex. Yanagisawa and Kamiya showed that both pf3 and ida6 are deficient in the tektin homolog p58, but that neither mutant mapped to the same position as this gene, nor did pf3 and ida6 appear to be allelic with one another.

It has been been reported by Susan Dutcher that this copy of CC-1026 pf3 mt+ carries a cnk11-6 mutation. Please see CC-5145 pf3 (wild-type for CNK11) for a pf3 strain with a verified wild type CNK11. -September 2015
