CC-2677 cw15 nit1-305 mt- 5D
$30.00
From P.A. Lefebvre, University of Minnesota, September 1991
Phenotype: somewhat wall deficient
This strain is reported to work well as a recipient for transformation with the NIT1 (NIA1) gene. However, the cell-wall deficient phenotype is not as marked as in the original cw15 mutant. Better transformation efficiencies will be obtained if autolysin is also used to remove the walls prior to introducing the DNA. This strain has the wild type allele at the NIT2 locus.
