CGSC Strain#: 4160
Strain Designation: EM-0      Source of Strain: E. Murgola
Sex: F- Chromosomal Markers: araC14, lacY1, tsx-57, glnV44(AS), galK2(Oc), rfbC1, mgl-51, rpsL20(strR), xylA5, mtl-1, thiE1, ilv-275, tfr-5
Strain Comments:

• The ilv-275 mutation renders this strain conditionally streptomycon-dependent.
• 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.
• ilv-275-- The ilv-275 mutation renders this strain conditionally streptomycon-dependent.
• galK2(Oc) was formerly called gal₂
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called supE44
• glnV44(AS) was formerly called su⁺_II
• rfbC1 was formerly called rfbD1
• thiE1 was formerly called thi-1
• AS = amber(UAG) suppressor
• Oc = ochre(UAA) mutation
• strR = streptomycin resist.
