MUT-4732 rbcS1-Y68A mt-
Catalog No: ALS-03869
Product Details
Subategory:
Mutants
Description:
Directed mutagenesis and nuclear-gene transformation of rbcSΔ-T60-3 mt- were used to create a Y68A substitution (TAC-GCC) in the betaA-betaB loop of the Rubisco small subunit, which causes decreases in Rubisco carboxylation catalytic efficiency and holoenzyme stability. Mutant Y68A has also been studied with respect to enhanced hydrogen production. This strain has been maintained with acetate medium in darkness to prevent selection for secondary mutations that may improve Rubisco function or stability.
