Genes

Locus	Cultural Requirements	Link Group	Type
cys-2	VIL. Between un-4 (4%) and cys-1 (1 to 3%). Very close to or contiguous with cys-1, but is probably a separate locus (721, 1012). (M. Fling, cited by T. H. Pittenger, Genetics 39:326-342, 1954) Uses cysteine or methionine. Strains carrying these alleles are heterogeneous in response to thiosulfate, but do not use sulfite (721). Lacks sulfite reductase, as do the cys-4 and cys-10 mutants (596). No interallelic complementation. Used in studies of intra- and interlocus recombination (see cys-1).	VIL	B
