cadB2231::Tn10Strain Comments: - rph-1-- is a 1 bp deletion that results in frameshift over last 15 codons and has polar effect on pyrE leading to suboptimal pyrimidine levels on minimal medium.(Jensen 1993 JBact.175:3401)
- cadB2231::Tn10-- from AKK231; cotransduces 81% with melB and 66% with ampC; located by PCR (Nichols et al. 1998) within cadB, at nucleotide 4,356,936 (93.915 min.)
- = tetracycline resistant
