Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
SP1564 mec-8(u218) smu-1(mn609) I; unc-52(e669su250ts) II. Temperature sensitive mec-8 allele, mechanosensory abnormal at 25 C. Reference: Spike CA, et al. Mol Cell Biol. 2001 Aug;21(15):4985-95.
SP1792 smu-1(mn415) I; unc-52(e669su250) II. Non-Unc at all temperatures. See also WBPaper00004764.
SP2123 mec-8(u218) smu-1(mn602) I; unc-52(e669su250ts) II. Temperature sensitive mec-8 allele, mechanosensory abnormal at 25 C. Reference: Spike CA, et al. Mol Cell Biol. 2001 Aug;21(15):4985-95.
SP2533 smu-1(mn415) I; mnIs35. mnIs35 [smu-2::GFP + unc-36(+)]. Superficially wild-type. Although unlikely, unc-36 might still be present in the background. Reference: Spartz AK, et al. Mol Cell Biol. 2004 Aug;24(15):6811-23.
SP2688 smu-1(mn415) I; unc-36(e251) III; mnEx156. mnEx156 [smu-2::GFP + smu-1::3xHA + unc-36(+)( R1p16)]. Maintain by picking non-Unc.
SV2061 he314[pie-1p::GLO-ePDZ::mCherry::smu-1::tbb-2 3'UTR] II; e259[eft-3p::PH::eGFP::LOV::tbb-2 3'UTR]) IV. he314[pie-1p::GLO-ePDZ::mCherry::smu-1::tbb-2 3'UTR] II. e259[eft-3p::PH::eGFP::LOV::tbb-2 3'UTR]) IV. Superficially wild-type. CRISPR/Cas9 was used to create insertion alleles he314 and he259 insertions into N2 background at sites of known MosSCI insertions ttTi5605 and cxTi10816, respectively. ePDZ–LOV system transgenes allow use of blue light to control protein heterodimerization, in this case, membrane recruitment of ePDZ-tagged proteins of interest. Germline-optimized cytosolic ePDZ::mCherry-tagged SMU-1 (GLO-ePDZ::mCherry::SMU-1), and membrane-bound LOV2 domain fused to a pleckstrin-homology domain (PH::eGFP::LOV). GLO-ePDZ::mCherry is a germline-optimized variant coded to be less prone to silencing in the germline. Reference: Fielmich LE, et al. eLife 2018 Aug 15;7:e38198. doi: 10.7554/eLife.38198.
