Genes

Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group	Type
nic-1	IR. Right of ace-3 (<1%), lys-1 (1%), and In(OY323). Left of os-1(10 to 29%) (2, 57, 131, 578, 789, 816, 907). (482) Uses nicotinic acid or nicotinamide, but not precursors (97, 100) (Fig. 18). Accumulates quinolinic acid (100). Used to study intralocus recombination (907). Called the q locus.	IR	B
nic-2	IR. Between ad-3B (4%) and ace-7 (4 to 7%) (271, 578). (482) Grows on nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, or high concentrations of quinolinic acid (97, 1168). Cannot use kynurenine, hydroxykynurenine, or hydroxyanthranilic acid (96, 1168). Accumulates 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (96) (Fig. 18). Aging cultures accumulate red-brown pigment in the medium. Used to study intralocus recombination (908). Translocations T(4540) and T(S1325)are inseparable from nic-2 (808, 908, 911).	IR	B
