Lys+Strain Comments: - leuB6(Am)-- Suppressed by serU suppressor (supH)
- glnX44(AS)-- Mutation is a C to T transition at nucleotide 34 (3rd position of the anticodon)
- lysA22-- is Taylor's lysA10 which he briefly called lysB10 in 1971.
- Lys+-- in presence of lysA22 causes overproduction of Pdx. prototrophic for Lys and Pdx
- Δ(gpt-proA)62 was formerly called proA2
- glnX44(AS) was formerly called su+II
- glnX44(AS) was formerly called supE44
- glnX44(AS) was formerly called glnV44
- rfbC1 was formerly called rfbD1
- thiE1 was formerly called thi-1
- Am = amber(UAG) mutation
- AS = amber(UAG) suppressor
- strR = streptomycin resist.
