CC-127 arg 2N mt- [diploid]
$30.00
Boynton-Gillham laboratory, Duke University
From a cross in R.P. Levine’s laboratory of arg2 mt+ x arg7 mt, selected as a potential diploid. This strain was brought to Duke by N.W. Gillham in 1968. Arginine-requiring progeny have been recovered from crosses to wild type mt+.
This is the strain we normally distribute when a basic “wild type” diploid strain is requested. Karen Kindle has reported that CC-127 grows on nitrate, suggesting (somewhat to our surprise) that at least one of the parental stocks was not in the Levine (nit1 nit2) 137c background.
