lys-3	IR. Right of al-1 (9%) and al-2 (12 to 15%). Left of In(OY323) and nic-1 (<1%) (2, 907). Not included in duplications from In(OY323) x In(NM176); hence, left of ace-3(57). (288)Uses lysine or epsilon-hydroxynorleucine. Probably blocked in conversion of alpha-aminoadipate to alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde, based on precursor utilization (400, 1087) (Fig. 16). Complementation between alleles (13). Ascospores are white and inviable in homozygous lys-3 x lys-3 crosses, but some heteroallelic crosses are fertile (13). Inhibited by methionine. Initial allele: 4545.	IR	B
