CC-1158 imp1-15 (fus1) mt+

$30.00

From Ursula Goodenough, Washington University, May 1981

Phenotype: does not mate

This is the clone of imp1 that has been used for most of her work. Mutants at the FUS1 locus are blocked in adhesion of mating structures prior to sexual fusion.

Recommended for a well-characterized non-mating strain.
