Genes

Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group
glp-1	IR. Linked to ad-9 (2%) and nit-1 (11%); probably between them (466, 763).Unable to use glycerol as the sole carbon source (763). Can use dihydroxyacetone or glyceraldehyde (261). Probably regulatory. Deficient in inducible glycerol kinase under normal conditions (466, 764); wild-type levels of normal enzyme are induced by cold or by deoxyribose in strains carrying some, but not all, alleles (261, 466); glycerol transport is normal (261). Fine-structure map (262). Called gly and gly-u.	IR
wc-2	IR. Right of T(NM103), T(ALS182), and thi-1 (8%). Left of ad-9 (7 to 20%) (PB). Resembles wc-1. Detected in a glp-1 strain (J.B. Courtright, personal communication); wc-2is separable from glp-1 by crossing over (PB).	IR
