You'll need to talk to someone much more familiar with yeast genetics than me to determine exactly what each notation means - I'm just remembering all this stuff from grad school 13 or 14 years ago... | |
| Apr 4, 2016 at 19:56 | comment | added | curious_cat | @MattDMo Ah! That explains it. Thanks! So what's the difference between these two strains that it throws up SC2489 and Y22884: euroscarf.de/search.php?search=ERG9&project= Are they both Squalene blocked strains? I still cannot interpret the "Genotype" goblydygook that the database entry has....... | |

Seems like you should have searched for erg9 instead...
