Description:

MUT-44 ac29a mt-

Catalog No: ALS-01249

Product Details

Subategory:
Mutants
Description:
This strain appears yellow-green in color, especially on minimal medium. The color difference from wild type is rather subtle. The AC29 locus is closely linked to mating type. This allele, ac29a, is linked to mt-, whereas the original ac29 (MUT-45) is linked to mt+. For an ac29 strain whose phenotype is easier to score, see MUT-3054 ac29-3, a deletion mutant isolated. The AC29 locus encodes a protein that is a homolog of the plant protein ALBINO3, which is required for the integration of the light-harvesting complex into the thylakoid membrane.
