Wild-type


Wild-type
A strain used as a standard reference to compare any mutant derivatives. A wild-type strain may have certain nutritional requirements depending upon the species.

Wild-type
The normal condition, either with regard to a whole organism (wild-type strain), or with reference to a particular mutation (wild-type at that locus or site, denoted by a plus sign).

In second instar wild-type wing discs, wg is expressed distally in a wedge of anterior ventral cells (Couso et al. 1993; Williams et al. 1993; Ng et al. 1996)
Wingless is distributed asymmetricly in the embryo.

back-mutation A mutation that causes a mutant gene to revert back to its wild-type genotype. bacteriophage (phage) A virus capable of replicating in a bacterial cell.

In response to changes in redox and growth conditions, 121 genes out of the 691 arrayed ORFs displayed at least a 2-fold difference in transcript abundance in wild-type S. oneidensis MR-1.

One way to do this is to replace the wild-type gene with a 'fusion' gene, ...

For example, consider a maternal effect gene where the mutant allele (m) is recessive to the wild-type allele. In the cross of homozygous, wild-type females to homozygous, mutant males, all the F1 offspring are heterozygotes and appear normal.

Therefore the intracellular retention of hetero-oligomers containing wild-type and dRTA mutants, or the mistargeted protein in the apical membrane neutralizing acid secretion, explains dominant dRTA.

one designated B/2, gain the ability to resist infection by normal ("wild-type") T2. The mutation has caused a change in the structure of their cell wall so that the tail fibers of T2 can no longer bind to it. However, T2 can strike back.

Plaque assays showed that the efficiency of plating of Bdellovibrio suspension on lawns of the mutant was at least 107 times lower than on the original strain or on the wild-type cells from the culture.

Wild-type flies show an activity rhythm of with a frequency of about a day (24 hours). They found mutants with faster and slower rhythms as well as broken rhythms - flies that move and rest in random spurts.

Selective breeding of plants and animals has led to varieties that differ dramatically from their original wild-type ancestors. Examples are the cabbage varieties, maize, or the large number of different dog breeds.

For the gene interrupted by the insertion sequence, one copy of the direct repeat was present in the wild-type gene.

: A (heterozygous) dominant mutation on one allele blocking the activity of wild-type protein still encoded by the normal allele (often by
dimerising
with it) causing a loss-of-function phenotype.

2) The gene or chromosome that results from such a process.

BACK MUTATION - Reverse the effect of a point or frame-shift mutation that had altered a gene; thus it restores the wild-type phenotype (see REVERTANT).
