I'm looking for a polA mutant strain of E. coli to perform a gene
knockout, and would appreciate any assistance in finding such a strain.
I've looked in the ATCC catalogue, but without any cross-reference for
genotypes it would take forever to look through all the strains.
If anyone has such a strain, or knows the ATCC (or other bank) number for
a strain with a polA knockout I would very much like to hear from you.
Thanks,
