From Donghong Zhang, Washington University, March 1997

The far1 (free from ammonia repression) mutants were isolated by insertional mutagenesis or by selection of spontaneous mutants with constitutive expression of the NIT1 (nitrate reductase) gene in the presence of ammonia. CC-3353 is the far1-3 mutant, which was isolated in a pf14 background after transformation with the wild-type RPS3 (PF14) gene as a reporter for expression from the NIT1 promoter).
