This is progeny clone 1B from a backcross of the original fla3-1 strain (CC-1391) to 21gr. The backcrossed strain is temperature sensitive for flagellar assembly at 32 degrees. The FLA3 gene encodes the KAP (kinesin associated protein) subunit of the kinesin 2 complex, which also includes the motor subunits FLA10 and FLA8. The fla3 mutation is a single base pair change at nucleotide 6853 of the cDNA sequence (T to C) and results in the change of a conserved phenylalanine to a leucine at amino acid residue 453.
