Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
BC14933 dpy-5(e907) I; sEx14933. sEx14933 [rCes T10H9.2::GFP + pCeh361]. Maintain by picking WT. WT animals are GFP+. Strain construction supported by Genome British Columbia and Genome Canada. Please acknowledge McKay et al, Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology 68: 159-169 2004 (WBPaper00006525).
JT10189 daf-14(m77) IV; scd-2(sa935) V. Daf-c strongly but not completely suppressed; some dauers visible at 25C. sa935 alone is moderate Daf-d (dauer defective) in plate starvation assays, and resistant to exogenous dauer pheromone. sa935 confers strong suppression of daf-8 and daf-14, weak suppression of daf-1, -4, -7. scd-2(sa935) single mutant looks WT. snb-1(md247) hypomorph is an excellent balancer for scd-2; snb-1 is immediately neighboring. Maintain at 15 degrees.
JT10783 scd-2(sa935) V; lin-15B&lin-15A(n765) X; saEx472. saEx472 [(pTJ1369) scd-2(+) + lin-15(+)]. Pick wildtype worms, maintain at 25 degrees (non-transgenics will be Muv).
JT249 scd-2(sa249) V. Responds poorly to dauer pheromone.
RB783 scd-2(ok565) V. T10H9.2. Homozygous. Outer Left Sequence: TGGTGGTGGTTCAAACTCAA. Outer Right Sequence: CGATGGCTAGAACACCCATT. Inner Left Sequence: ATCACAAACCAATTGGGGAA. Inner Right Sequence: GAGTCTGGCCGGTGTAGTGT. Inner primer WT PCR product: 3154. Attribution: This strain was provided by the C. elegans Gene Knockout Project at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, which was part of the International C. elegans Gene Knockout Consortium, which should be acknowledged in any publications resulting from its use.

TY3553 scd-2(y386) V. Variably scrawny, Sma, starved-looking, sluggish.
TY3581 daf-8(e1393) I; scd-2(y386) V. Egl. Not temperature sensitive -- can be grown at any temperature.
VC3072 scd-2(ok3702) V. T10H9.2. External left primer: ATCACAAACCAATTGGGGAA. External right primer: TAATCCGGCTGGAAGAAATG. Internal left primer: CCCTGCGTATGCTAATTGGT. Internal right primer: TCCGGTCTAGTGGTAATCCG. Internal WT amplicon: 1147 bp. Deletion size: 660 bp. Deletion left flank: CTGATTTTATCGTTGAACGACGCGATAATC. Deletion right flank: CTTGTACAACATTACGTTTTTGATCTTCGC. 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.

ZM588 fsn-1(hp1) III; juIs1 IV; scd-2(ok565) V. juIs1 [unc-25p::snb-1::GFP + lin-15(+)] IV. Animals are WT looking. In WT, GABAergic synapses visualized with juIs1 (GABAergic nervous system specific synaptobrevin::GFP) marker show uniformly spaced and sized puncta. fsn-1(hp1); scd-2(ok565) animals have puncta close to WT shape. This is more evident in larvae than in adults.
