Description:

MUT-4789 rbcL-R217S/A242V pf2 mt- (R14-A revertant of 28-7J)

Catalog No: ALS-03925

Product Details

Subategory:
Mutants
Description:
R14-A was recovered as a photosynthesis-competent revertant of rbcL-R217S mt+ (28-7J). It results from an intragenic-suppressor mutation that causes an A242V substitution (GCT-GTT) in the Rubisco large subunit, and the double-mutant enzyme has decreases in Rubisco CO2/O2 specificity, holoenzyme stability, and large-subunit isoelectric point. The mutant can grow on minimal medium at 25 °C, but dies on minimal medium at 35 °C. This strain was recovered from a cross between rbcL-R217S/A242V mt+ and pf2 mt-. It has been maintained with acetate medium in darkness since its isolation.
