CC-424 cw15 arg2 sr-u-2-60 mt-
$30.00
From Robert Lee, Dalhousie University, October 1977
Phenotype: wall deficient; requires arginine; antibiotic resistant (streptomycin)
Presumably derived from Lee’s cw15 isolate, which was originally from Ledoux.
This strain was used in transformation experiments in Boynton/Gillham and Kohorn laboratories at Duke, 1993. Transformation rates were good, but subsequent crosses of transformants gave many incomplete tetrads.
Please see CC-48 for more information on arg2, CC-118 for the chloroplast streptomycin resistance mutation sr-u-2-60, and CC-400 for more on cw15.
