Strain Comments:

• Δ(gpt-lac)5-- is the deletion Δ( pro-lac)_X111 of Jacob and originated in the strain Hfr 3000 X111.
• recA56-- Amino acid substitution Arg 60 Cys
• spoT1-- In addition to the 6bp insertion, there is a C to T transition resulting in an H257Y substitution.
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called supE44
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called su⁺_II
• AS = amber(UAG) suppressor
