• Strain #:
  • CC-4 ac15a mt+
  • Description:
  • From W.T. Ebersold, UCLA, to Boynton-Gillham laboratory, Duke University, 1973

    Phenotype: requires acetate (partially suppressed)

    The ac15a mutation was UV-induced in Levine’s laboratory. The reason for the acetate requirement is unknown.

    This strain grows slowly on HS minimal medium at 15 degrees, but is not clearly acetate-requiring. CC-527 is probably a better ac15 strain for mapping purposes.
