CGSC Strain#: 8204
Strain Designation: WTZ1011      Source of Strain: J.E. Wertz
Other Designations: BZB1011StrR
Sex: F- Chromosomal Markers: λ^-, gyrA586(NalR), IN(rrnD-rrnE)1, rpsL-(strR), rph-1
Strain Comments:

• Derived from W3110NalR of Mock and Schwartz, as obtained from T.Pugsley as BZB1011.
• IN(rrnD-rrnE)1-- Inverts the region between rrnD (73.74 min) and rrnE (90.66 min)
• rph-1-- is a 1 bp deletion that results in frameshift over last 15 codons and has polar effect on pyrE leading to suboptimal pyrimidine levels on minimal medium.(Jensen 1993 JBact.175:3401)
• NalR = Nalidix.acidResist.
• strR = streptomycin resist.
