Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
KM134 mef-2(gv1) I; ayIs. Slightly short and fat as adults. 1376 bp deletion of part of intron 1 through intron 4. Contains an integrated hlh-8::GFP reporter marking the postembryonic M lineage.
KM137 mef-2(gv2) I. 760 bp deletion beginnin in exon 3 and ending in exon 4. No strong visible phenotype.
PY2223 mef-2(oy65) I; kin-29(oy39) kyIs104 X. kyIs104 [str-1::GFP]. AWB expression of GFP. mef-2 suppresses the phenotypes of kin-29 (small body size, hypersensitivity to dauer pheromone, reduced expression of the str-1 chemoreceptor in the AWB olfactory neurons). WT looking.
PY2289 mef-2(oy63) I; kin-29(oy39) kyIs104 X. kyIs104 [str-1::GFP]. AWB expression of GFP. mef-2 suppresses the phenotypes of kin-29 (small body size, hypersensitivity to dauer pheromone, reduced expression of the str-1 chemoreceptor in the AWB olfactory neurons). WT looking.
VC1402 mef-2(gk633) I. W10D5.1. External left primer: CCCTGTTGGATCTCCTGAAA. External right primer: TCATCACACAACACACCACG. Internal left primer: AAGAAGGCAGGCTCGTGTAA. Internal right primer: CCACCTACTCCATACCGCAA. Internal WT amplicon: 1885 bp. Deletion size: 1075 bp. Deletion left flank: TATGAAAAATCATGGTAACCTCCAGAGATT. Deletion right flank: TAATTTTTATCAAAAAATTGTCAGAACATT.
