Phenotype: wall deficient

This is one of the original cell wall deficient mutants isolated by Davies and colleagues, in the 137c background. Davies included cw2 in his class A: cell walls are produced in more or less normal amounts, but are not attached to the plasmalemma.The inner (W1) and outer (W7) wall layers are deficient.

Like other wall-deficient mutants, cw2 forms flat, liquid colonies on agar, and the cells lyse in a 1% solution of the nonionic detergent NP-40.

The cw2 mutation may be linked to or allelic with cw1, cw8, and/or cw19.
