fluorophenylalanine resistant

locus: fpr

locus_name: fluorophenylalanine resistant

organism_type: B

chromosome_number:

chromosome_side:

link_group:

cultural_requirements: Many mutants isolated by resistance to p-fluorophenylalanine are actually bradytrophs (very leaky auxotrophs); most require one of many amino acids. The resistance disappears when the required growth factor is added. It is suggested that the resistance is due to transinhibition of amino acid transport caused by increased amino acid pools resulting from deprivation of the required amino acid. (552 and references therein) It is not clear whether any of the mapped fpr mutations are of this type.
