Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
QA269 mel-46(yt5ts) IV; ytEx209. ytEx209 contains [pRM8 (mel-46+) + pTG96(sur-5::GFP)]. GFP minus worms are Mel or sterile at 25 C (completely penetrant). Strong but not fully penetrant Mel at 15 C. Culture at 20°C or higher in order not to lose the transgene. To start a yt5 homozygous culture transfer several GFP minus worms to 15°C.
QA273 mel-46(tm1739) IV; ytEx211. ytEx211 contains [pRM8(mel-46+) + pTG96(sur-5::GFP)]. Larval lethal. GFP minus worms die or arrest as L4 larvae.
VC3108 mel-46(ok3760) IV. T06A10.1. External left primer: CAGCTTGTCTCCCGAATCTC. External right primer: AGGCCAACAATAGCCAAAAA. Internal left primer: CTCGTCTTTCTCGCGTTTTC. Internal right primer: TTTGAGCAATTCTGGACTAAAAA. Internal WT amplicon: 1270 bp. Deletion size: 448 bp. Deletion left flank: GACGTGAAGGCTTCACGAATGTGTTGGAGC. Deletion right flank: ACAGAAAAATGGGCGGGGCACAGTTTTGCA. Insertion Sequence: AGAAAAAT. 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.
