Strain | Characteristics |
|---|---|
FSL F2-640 | Parent strain, used for amplification of the A6 inlA 5' allele for generation of kanR fusion strains |
EGD-e | Parent strain for construction of kanR fusion strains |
FSL B2-112 | In-frame A6 inlA 5' allele -kanR fusion (control strain) |
FSL B2-122 | Out of-frame A6 inlA 5' allele -kanR fusion; used to assess frequency of A6 → A7 insertion |
FSL B2-135 | Out of-frame A7 inlA 5' allele -kanR fusion; used to assess frequency of A7 → A6 deletion |
FSL B2-136 | Out of-frame A2GA4inlA 5' allele -kanR fusion; used to assess frequency of deletions in A2GA4 |
