Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
CB1364 daf-4(e1364) III. Temperature sensitive dauer constitutive. 100% dauers at 25C. Dauer recovery poor at 15C. Small. M-Mating--no success.
CB2196 daf-4(e1364) unc-32(e189) III. Temperature sensitive dauer constitutive. Unc. Closely linked.
CB2206 lon-1(e185) daf-4(e1364) unc-32(e189) III. Temperature sensitive dauer constitutive. Long. Unc. Linked closely.
DR508 unc-13(e450) I; daf-4(m72) III; sup-7(st5) X. sup-7 suppress dauer formation. sup-7 should be grown between 22.5C and 24C.
DR63 daf-4(m63) III. Temperature sensititve dauer constitutive. Small. 100% dauers at 25C. 15% dauers at 15C.
DR72 daf-4(m72) III. Temperature sensitive dauer constitutive. Small. Amber. Maintain at 15C.
OK66 daf-4(m72) III; cuIs2/+ IV. cuIs2 [myo-2c:: GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. daf-4(m72) is a temperature sensitive dauer constitutive mutant. Maintain at 15C. It was problematic to get cuIs2 homozygous in this background. Pick Rollers to maintain.
PJ105 cad-1(j1) II; daf-4(e1364) III. Very small, almost Dpy. Temperature sensitive dauer constitutive. Many dauers at 16C. Reduced cathepsin.
PJ1185 daf-5(e1386) II; daf-4(m592) III; ccIs55 V. ccIs55 [unc-54::lacZ + sup-7(st5)] V. Maintain at 15C. Small size and weak lacZ staining at 25C. daf-4 dauer defects are suppressed by daf-5, but not the small size.
PJ1228 daf-4(m592) III; ccIs55 V. ccIs55 [unc-54::lacZ + sup-7(st5)] V. Maintain at 15C. Leaky dauer constitutive -- ~95% dauer formation at 25C. Small body size at 20C. Strong lacZ staining in body wall at 15C; no staining at 25C.
PJ1257 daf-4(m592) III; unc-51(e369) ccIs55 V. ccIs55 [unc-54::lacZ + sup-7(st5)] V. Small. Unc. Most progeny shifted to 26C form dauers.
PJ1271 daf-4(m592) III; ccIs55 V; daf-3(e1376) X. ccIs55 [unc-54::lacZ + sup-7(st5)] V. Maintain at 15C. daf-4 is temperature-sensitive and dauer formation (not body size) phenotype is suppressed by daf-3. Dauers will form only when plates are crowded, starved, and maintained at 26C. Animals are small at 25C.
PJ1272 daf-4(m592) III; daf-18(e1375) IV; ccIs55 V. ccIs55 [unc-54::lacZ + sup-7(st5)] V. Abnormal-looking dauers form at 25C.
VC546 daf-4(ok827) III. C05D2.1. Temperature-sensitive dauer-constitutive, small. 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.

VC547 daf-4(ok828) III. C05D2.1. Temperature-sensitive dauer constitutive, small. Severe allele - most progeny are dauers at 20 degrees, and adults are more Dpy than Sma.
