CC-1047 F8 (ac211) mt+

From Pierre Bennoun, Institut de Biologie Physico-Chimique, June 1980
Phenotype: requires acetate
The ac211 mutants are deficient in the PS I reaction center and were assigned to complementation group 3 by Girard et al. (1980), who showed that one of these mutants, M10, was linked to arg7 on linkage group I. Tang at al. showed that CC-1047 is deficient in photosystem I electron transport.
This linkage was confirmed by the Chlamydomonas Genetics Center, and the corresponding locus was named AC211, continuing Levine’s sequence of AC loci. It is about 4 centimorgans from ARG7, but has not been ordered relative to other loci in this region.
