Deletion mutants for nitrate reductase

Overview

Mutinfo:

Deletion mutants for nitrate reductase

Organism:

Nannochloropsis oceanica (N. oceanica IMET1)

Method:

CRISPR/Cas

Genes:

NO14G02460   

Phenotypes:

The isolated mutants, in which precise deletion of five bases caused a frameshift in NR translation, grow normally under NH4 Cl but fail to grow under NaNO3 , and thus represent a valuable chassis strain for transgenic-strain development.
