MUT-4641 68-11AR mt+ (rbc-2-68-11AR) original isolate
Catalog No: ALS-03778
Product Details
Subategory:
Mutants
Description:
This nuclear mutant was isolated by screening for temperature-conditional, acetate-requiring mutants. It can grow on minimal medium at 25 °C, but dies on minimal medium at 35 °C. The nuclear mutation is not in the Rubisco rbcS genes, but it causes a decrease in Rubisco stability and CO2/O2 specificity. Some clones of 68-11AR have been observed to become acetate-requiring at 25 °C after many years of culture. This strain has been maintained with acetate medium in darkness since its isolation.
Species:
Chlamydomonas
Phenotype:
Requires acetate at 35 °C; temperature-conditional
