Strain Comments:

• PO 59 is sometimes called OR11, and the strain of origin is sometimes called Hfr OR11.
• This strain should be maintained on medium containing thi, met, tryp, leu and lacking ade, pro.
• leuB6(Am)-- Suppressed by serU suppressor (supH)
• purE42-- :Strains with this marker are derivatives of Χ148 and may carry malA38LAMR and a suppressor of the Mal^- phenotype, sup-78,near his.
• recA1-- : Missense mutation, altered isoelectric point. Sequenced: G to A for Nuc. 720 (Gly 160 Asp).
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called supE44
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called su⁺_II
• proC32 was formerly called proC65
• thiE1 was formerly called thi-1
• Am = amber(UAG) mutation
• AS = amber(UAG) suppressor
• aziR = azide resistance
• strR = streptomycin resist.
