Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
NK2479 pat-2(qy49[pat-2::2xmNG]) III. Superficially wild-type. Reference: Jayadev R, et al. J Cell Biol. 2019 Aug 6. pii: jcb.201903124. doi: 10.1083/jcb.201903124.
RW1522 pat-2(st538) unc-32(e189) III; stEx10. Animals with the extrachromosomal array are Unc Rollers. Animals which have lost the array are Pat. Strain can be propagated by chunking. The exact construct used to create stEx10 is unknown; it is thought to carry a pat-2 rescuing construct (most likely a cosmid) with a Rol marker.
RW1536 unc-79(e1068) pat-2(st567)/dpy-17(e164) III. Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Dpys and embryos which arrest at the 2-fold stage.
VC2332 pat-2(ok2148) III/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). F54F2.1. Homozygous lethal 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 ok2148 homozygotes (embryonic or early larval arrest). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: TCGTCATCGTCTTGGATACG. External right primer: AAGTGAAGTTTGTCAGCCCG. Internal left primer: TCGTGTTTTTATTGGAGCCC. Internal right primer: CGACTATGAGATCGTGGCAA. Internal WT amplicon: 3238 bp. Deletion size: 1660 bp. Deletion left flank: CAGTTGTTGGAGATGATCAGTGGGGACGAT. Deletion right flank: TTTTATAATGAGACAAGTTCACAGCCATTT. Insertion Sequence: GTGGAGTGGAGAGATGTGGAGTGGGGAGTGGGGAGTGGGGA. 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.
