CC-1919 fla10-1 mt-

$30.00

From David Luck, Rockefeller University, July 1985

Phenotype: impaired motility

The fla10 mutant cannot regenerate flagella at 32 degrees. The original fla10 allele (fla10-1) is a C to A transversion that alters amino acid 329 in the motor domain of the kinesin-homologous KHP1 protein. Other alleles at this locus include the null murant fla10-2 mutant (CC-4180), and fla10-14 (CC-1395).
