Strain Genotype Description
SF1 odc-1(pc13::Tc1) V. Made by PCR screen of Tc1 transposon insertion library. odc-1(pc13::Tc1) has a partial deletion of the Tc1 element. Phenotypically it has 35% reduction in brood size compared to the WT N2 Bristol strain.
VC1485 odc-1(ok1969) V/nT1 [qIs51] (IV;V). K11C4.4. Homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested nT1[qIs51] aneuploids, and non-GFP ok1969 homozygotes (early larval arrest). Homozygous nT1[qIs51] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: TCGTTTTGATCCACTCGTGA. External right primer: CGCTACACCACATCATCACC. Internal left primer: TTTCATTCTTCATGGAGCCC. Internal right primer: CTCTCCAAAGTTGACTCCGC. Internal WT amplicon: 2148 bp. Deletion size: 1529 bp. Deletion left flank: CTCCCACATTTCCTCGCTCATCACATACAT. Deletion right flank: TGTAAGATCAAAACGCTGCTAGCAAACTCT. 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.
