Sex: F- Chromosomal Markers: Δ(araD-araB)567, Δ(codB-lacI)3, λ^-, rpoS396(Am), rph-1
Strain Comments:

• Δ(araD-araB)567-- This deletion extends from ~25 bp upstream of the araB start codon to ~8 bp into the beginning of the araD gene
• Δ(codB-lacI)3-- is a deletion of the entire lac operon, from the strain Hfr 3000 X74 of Jacob. Refs. on extent of deletion: Sung et al.1987,J.Bact.169:2639; Gerdes et al.2001
• Δ(codB-lacI)3-- Shown by Ferrandez et al. 1997 to extend to mhpD
• Δ(codB-lacI)3-- Shown by Durfee et al. to extend from codon 292 of yahG through mhpE
• 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)
• Δ(araD-araB)567 was formerly called Δ araBAD_AH33
• Δ(codB-lacI)3 was formerly called Δlac74
• Δ(codB-lacI)3 was formerly called Δ(lac)3
• Δ(codB-lacI)3 was formerly called Δ(yahG-mhpE)
• Δ(codB-lacI)3 was formerly called X74
• Δ(codB-lacI)3 was formerly called DE(lac)6
• Am = amber(UAG) mutation
