MUT-1354 cbn1-48 mt+
Catalog No: ALS-01761
Product Details
Subategory:
Mutants
Description:
The cbn1 mutants are deficient in chlorophyll b and have reduced amounts of neoxanthin, but can grow phototrophically. Many allelic mutations have been found at this locus, which encodes chlorophyll a oxidase, but cbn1-48 is the best-characterized. This strain is from a cross, selected as a cbn1 product that is green in the dark. The locus was mapped to linkage group I. Insertional mutants with a similar phenotype were isolated and it was shown that they were in the CAO gene.
