| Strain Name | IA317 |
| AKA | mpC-2 VII |
| Species | T. thermophila |
| Genetic Description | mpC-2/mpC-2 (mpC-2; VII) |
| MAC Knockins/outs | |
| MIC Knockins/outs | |
| Gene of Interest | MPC (membranellar pattern C) |
| Origin | Genomic exclusion progeny following an outcross to B2079-X-VI of a mutant clone that resulted from ethyl-methane-sulfonate mutagenesis of IA264 followed by cytogamy in 1982. |
| Publications | Described in Frankel J, Nelsen EM, Bakowska J, Jenkins LM. 1984a. Mutational analysis of patterning of oral structures in tetrahymena. II. A graded basis for the individuality of intracellular structural arrays. J Embryol Exp Morphol 82:67-95. Reviewed in Frankel J. 2008. What do genic mutations tell us about the structural patterning of a complex single-celled organism? Eukaryot Cell 7(10):1617-39, p. 1624 and fig. 7B. |
| Comments | Formation of a fourth membranelle in the oral apparatus. Located on chromosome 3, probably 3L. Allelic to mpC-1 (IA308), with similar oral expression and no pleiotropic effects on cell division. Penetrance increased at higher temperatures. Submitted by Joseph Frankel, University of Iowa |
