Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
CE1494 +/hT2 [dpy-18(h662)] I; pen-2(ep220)/hT2 [bli-4(e937)] III. Heterozgyotes are WT and segregate WT, Dpys, and Ste or Mel. Pick wild-type individuals and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. bli-4 is suppressed by dpy-1 in hT2 homozygotes-only see a very few DpyBli.This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. ep220 is likely Mel. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.
VC1835 T28D6.6&pen-2(ok2449) III/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). T28D6.9, T28D6.6. Homozygous sterile deletion chromosome balanced by bli-4- and GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP ok2449 homozygotes (sterile, lays no eggs). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: TTCGTCGTTTCTCGCTTTTT. External right primer: CTACGTGGAAACCGTGGAGT. Internal left primer: CCCGTGTGCCTGTAAGTTTT. Internal right primer: CTTAAAGGCGCATATCCCAA. Internal WT amplicon: 2150 bp. Deletion size: 1227 bp. Deletion left flank: TCCAGATATTGCCATAAATTTAGAGAAAAT. Deletion right flank: TTCGATTTTTTTCTGAAAAATTCAAAAATT. Insertion Sequence: ATA. 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.

VC1847 T28D6.6&pen-2(ok2395) III/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). T28D6.9, T28D6.6. Homozygous sterile deletion chromosome balanced by bli-4- and GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP ok2395 homozygotes (grotty sterile). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: TTCGTCGTTTCTCGCTTTTT. External right primer: CTACGTGGAAACCGTGGAGT. Internal left primer: CCCGTGTGCCTGTAAGTTTT. Internal right primer: CTTAAAGGCGCATATCCCAA. Internal WT amplicon: 2150 bp. Deletion size: 832 bp. Deletion left flank: CGGCCTCGATATCCGCGATTTTTTGCAAAA. Deletion right flank: GATTTTTTTCTGAAAAATTCAAAAATTTCA.
