• leuB6(Am)-- Suppressed by serU suppressor (supH)
• galK2(Oc)-- is a GAA(glu) to TAA(ochre) mutation, residue 134. Oller et al.1993. Apparently non-suppressible, since all revertants found were at the ochre site.

• glnV44(AS) was formerly called supE44
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called su⁺_II
• rfbC1 was formerly called rfbD1
• thiE1 was formerly called thi-1
