Genes

Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group	Type
sfo	Linked to the centromere (<1%) (318), between thi-3 (6%) (874) and hlp-1(1 to 9%) (458). Requires sulfonamide at 35°C and is stimulated by sulfonamide at lower temperatures (319). Overproduces p-aminobenzoic acid; hence, growth is inhibited by exogenous p-aminobenzoic acid (1179). For sfo;pab-1 double mutant on minimal medium plus sulfonamide, p-amino-benzoic acid is stimulatory at very low concentrations but inhibitory at higher (319). For sfo;met-1 double mutant on minimal medium plus sulfonamide, methionine is stimulatory at very low concentrations but inhibitory at higher (1180). Best tested on solid minimal medium growth tubes at 35°C. Suppressor mutations occur frequently (318).	VII	B
