From Jonathan Jarvik, Carnegie-Mellon University, February 1989

Phenotype: short flagella

Three minor axonemal polypeptides are missing in two-dimensional gels of flagellar proteins. In contrast to other short-flagella mutants (e.g., McVittie’s), shf1 mutants are normal in ultrastructure and swimming does occur.
