From Robert J. Spreitzer, University of Nebraska, July 2014

Using established methods of directed mutagenesis and nuclear-gene transformation of rbcS∆-T60-3 mt- (CC-4415) (Genkov and Spreitzer 2009), Todor Genkov in Spreitzer’s group created a Y32F substitution in the Rubisco small subunit (Genkov and Spreitzer, unpublished). This strain has been maintained with acetate medium in darkness to prevent selection for secondary mutations that may improve Rubisco function or stability.
