Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
IT540 gap-3(kp1) I; puf-8(zh17) unc-4(e120)/mnC1 [dpy-10(e128) unc-52(e444)] II. Heterozygotes are wild type and segregate wild type heterozygotes, paralyzed DpyUncs, and Uncs with germline tumors. Pick WT and check segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Vaid S, et al. Development. 2013 Apr;140(8):1645-54.
JH1521 puf-8(ok302) II. 100% Sterile at 25C. Him and 50% Emb at 20C. Maintain at 15C.
JK3231 puf-8(q725) II. Low penetrance (<10%) Mog. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.
JK3961 puf-8(q725)/mIn1[mIs14 dpy-10(e128)] II; lip-1(zh15) IV. Pick wild-type GFP+ to maintain. q725 heterozygotes are wild-type with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate wild-type GFP+ q725 heterozygotes, Dpy bright GFP+ (mIn1 homozygotes), and non-GFP puf-8(q725) II; lip-1(zh15) IV double homozygotes. Homozygous puf-8(q725) II; lip-1(zh15) IV double mutants are ~100% Mog at 20C and ~100% Tumerous at 25C. Reference: Morgan CT, et al. Nat Chem Biol. 2010 Feb;6(2):102-4.
