Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
EU1004 tac-1(or402) II. Homozygous mutant animals give rise to >97% dead embyros at the restrictive temperature of 26C, with embryos exhibiting a lack of pronuclear migration at the one-cell stage. Homozygous mutant animals give rise to 50% dead embryos at the permissive temperature of 15C. Maintain at 15C.
EU3121 tac-1(or1955[gfp::tac-1]) II; ltIs37 IV. ltIs37 [pie-1p::mCherry::his-58 + unc-119(+)] IV. GFP tag inserted into endogenous tac-1 locus. Might still contain unc-119(ed3) in the background. [NOTE: the ltIs37 [pie-1p::mCherry::his-58 + unc-119(+)] IV transgene was previously annotated as itIs37 in this strain. The correct name of the transgene is ltIs37 and not itIs37.] Reference: Chuang CH, et al., Biology Open 2020 9: bio052308 doi: 10.1242/bio.052308 Published 25 June 2020
EU944 tac-1(or455) II. Homozygous mutant animals give rise to >99% dead embyros at the restrictive temperature of 26C, with embryos exhibiting a lack of pronuclear migration at the one-cell stage. Homozygous mutant animals give rise to viable progeny at the permissive temperature of 15C. Maintain at 15C.
VC2580 tac-1(ok3305)/mT1 II; +/mT1 [dpy-10(e128)] III. Y54E2A.3. 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 ok3305 homozygotes (arrest stage/phenotype undetermined). Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: AATTCGCTCAAAATCCATGC. External right primer: AAAATAAATGATGACGCGGG. Internal left primer: ATCAAAACAAATTCGGCCTG. Internal right primer: TTTTCACGAAAAATGTCGGTT. Internal WT amplicon: 1236 bp. Deletion size: 812 bp. Deletion left flank: CGCTGTATCTTTGGCGCGAAAATTTAGAAG. Deletion right flank: TTTAGCAATTTTTCAAAGCTTCTCACCATC. Insertion Sequence: CAATTTTTCAGCAATTTTAGCAA. 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.
