CGSC Strain#: 6021
Strain Designation: SK1592      Source of Strain: S.R. Kushner
Sex: F- Chromosomal Markers: lacZ4 or lac-61, glnX44(AS), gal-44, λ^-, sbcB15, endA1, rfa-([C]), thiE1, hsdR4, ton-58
Strain Comments:

• The strain is φX^S. Other parts of the chromosome could have come from E. coli C.
• We do not know of a reference to SK1592, although we understand that one will appear soon. The following is a reference to SK1590, the ton⁺ parent of SK1592:
• glnX44(AS)-- Mutation is a C to T transition at nucleotide 34 (3rd position of the anticodon)
• endA1-- G to A transition mutation resulting in E208K amino acid substitution.
• rfa-([C])-- comes from E. coli C.
• glnX44(AS) was formerly called su⁺_II
• glnX44(AS) was formerly called supE44
• glnX44(AS) was formerly called glnV44
• thiE1 was formerly called thi-1
• = good miniprep dsDNA quality
• AS = amber(UAG) suppressor
• [C] = from E. coli C.
