Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
TY1353 yDf10 unc-32(e189)/unc-93(e1500) dpy-17(e164) III. Heterozygotes are Unc-93 and segregate more Unc-93, yDf10 homozygotes (dead eggs) and Unc-93 Dpy-17 homozygotes (young dpy-17 larvae are easily recognizable as abnormal spindle-shaped things). Difficult to maintain and use. yDf10 apparently causes semi-sterility (a second strain constructed by the Mark Edgley at the CGC, yDf10/qC1, exhibits same sterility), and unc-93 is Egl and difficult to mate into. Some Df homozygotes are laid, but most remain inside the mother.
VC2604 +/mT1 II; pqn-45(ok3277)/mT1[dpy-10(e128)] III. F56F3.1. Apparent homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by dpy-10-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT, and segregate WT, arrested mT1 aneuploids, sterile Dpys (mT1 homozygotes), and ok3277 homozygotes (arrest stage/phenotype undetermined). Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: ATGGAACCACAGGTTGGTGT. External right primer: ATCAAGAAAGATCGATGGCG. Internal left primer: CACGGGACATCATCATCTTG. Internal right primer: GTGAGGAAACTGCTGGAGGA. Internal WT amplicon: 1110 bp. Deletion size: 568 bp. Deletion left flank: CTCTTGGTTGCTCTCTGGCGGGCTCTGACT. Deletion right flank: GGATCTTGCAATGGACTGACTTTTGAAGGT. Attribution: This strain was provided by the C. elegans Reverse Genetics Core Facility at the University of British Columbia, which is part of the international C. elegans Gene Knockout Consortium, which should be acknowledged in any publications resulting from its use.

VT333 +/szT1 [lon-2(e678)] I; dpy-17(e164) III; dpy-6(e14) lin-14(n536) maDf2/szT1 X. Heterozygotes are Dpy and segregate Dpy, males and dead eggs.
WM31 dpy-17(e164) vab-7(e1562) III. Dpy and Vab (tail abnormalities).
