Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
BU7222 pat-3(st564) III; kqEx73. kqEx73 [pat-3(sp) + rab-3::RFP + cki-1::GFP]. Pick RFP+ to maintain. kqEx73 carries a form of pat-3 gene with splicing defects; rescues pat-3 null allele. pat-3(sp) is a frameshift mutation in the splice acceptor region (ag to aa) that abolishes conserved interaction domains such as the NPxY motifs and creates a splice variant with an extra 19 amino acids. The pat-3(sp) animals not only produce mutant pat-3, but also express the regular splice form due to utilization of an unusual splice acceptor. Abnormal Distal Tip Cell migration and pat-3 gene splicing (intron 7) defects. Reference: Kihira S, et al. PLoS One. 2012;7(8):e42425.
JE32 pat-3(st564) III; mwEx32. mwEx32 [pat-3(YYFF) + sur-5::GFP]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. mwEx32 carries a mutant form of pat-3 gene with tyrosine (Y) to phenylalanine (F) mutations; rescues pat-3 null allele. Abnormal DTC migration. Reference: Lee M, et al. J Biol Chem. 2001 Sep 28;276(39):36404-10.
JE443 pat-3(st564) III; mwEx443. mwEx443 [pat-3(+) + sur-5::GFP]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. mwEx443 contains wild type contains pat-3 genomic DNA, rescues pat-3 null allele. Reference: Lee M, et al. J Biol Chem. 2001 Sep 28;276(39):36404-10.
NJ268 pat-3(rh96) III. Short excretory canal, incomplete QR, HSN migrations, post DTC loops.
NK2436 pat-3(qy36[pat-3::mNG]) III. Superficially wild-type. Reference: Jayadev R, et al. J Cell Biol. 2019 Aug 6. pii: jcb.201903124. doi: 10.1083/jcb.201903124.
RW3600 pat-3(st564)/qC1 [dpy-19(e1259) glp-1(q339)] III. Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpySteriles and PATs. st564 is a recessive lethal which causes a "severe" PAT phenotype. Strain is well balanced.
VT2797 pat-3(st564)/qC1 [dpy-19(e1259) glp-1(q339)] III; mir-83(n4638) IV; mir-34(gk437) X. Heterozygotes are superficially WT (with DTC migration defects), and segregate superficially WT (with DTC migration defects), sterile ts-Dpy qC1 homozygotes, and st564 homozygotes (PAT lethal). Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Burke SL, Hammell M, Ambros V. Genetics. 2015 Jun 15.
