Isolation and characterization of filipin-resistant LM cell variants not auxotrophic for sterol.

A series of LM cell variants resistant to filipin, but not auxotrophic for sterol, was isolated by plating mutagenized, filipin-treated cells on soft agar medium containing no sterol. Cloned variants were assayed for growth in the presence and absence of sterol or unsaturated fatty acid. Filipin-res...
