From Patrick Ferris, Goodenough lab, Washington University, December 1993; originally from Matsuda

Phenotype: does not mate; requires arginine; antibiotic and inhitibor resistant (spectinomycin, methionine sulfoximine)

This is the original agl1 mutation induced in Matusda’s strain 7457B (arg2 spr-u-1-27-3 msr1). This mutation is an allele at the sex-linked SAD1 locus on linkage group VI. Mutants at this locus do not agglutinate with mt+ cells.
