CC-530 ac17 mt-
$30.00
From Ursula Goodenough, Harvard University, May 1978
Phenotype: requires acetate
This is an exceptionally clean acetate-requiring mutant, very easy to score and well-behaved in crosses. However, the reason for its stringent acetate requirement has never been determined. The original ac17 mutant was isolated in Levine’s laboratory. Many allelic mutants were also isolated, but all the strains now extant probably contain the original mutation.
