MUT-1686 vfl3 mt+
Datasheet
Catalog No: ALS-01976
Product Details
Subategory:
Mutants
Description:
Mutation at the VFL3 locus causes defects in striated fibers associated with the basal body. Basal bodies are abnormally and variably spaced, and their orientation is disrupted. Cellular contents may be partitioned abnormally at cytokinesis. It was reported that vfl3 mutants are defective in templated assembly of centrioles, but capable of de novo assembly. In contrast to vfl2 mutants, the vfl3 mutant has normal levels of centrin and a stable nucleus-basal body connector. The flagella beat actively and waveform and frequency are normal, but the effective strokes can occur in any direction.
