Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
EGD615 cox-4(zu476[cox-4::eGFP::3XFLAG]) I; egxSi136 II; unc-119(ed3) III. egxSi136 [mex-5p::tomm-20::halotag::pie-1 3’UTR + unc-119(+)] II. GFP and 3xFLAG tags inserted into endogenous cox-4 locus to create a C-terminal translational GFP fusion. Outer membranes are stably labeled with the TOMM-20::Halotag transgene, and the mitochondria matrix are labeled with COX-4::GFP. Reference: Fan X, et al. G3 (accepted).
JJ2586 cox-4(zu476[cox-4::eGFP::3xFLAG]) I. cox-4(zu476[cox-4::eGFP::3xFLAG]) I. Endogenous cox-4 locus tagged with eGFP via genome editing. Mitochondria in all cell types are labeled with GFP. Reference: Raiders SA, et al. PLoS Genet. 2018 Jul 19;14(7):e1007417.
VC2290 W09C5.8(ok2908)/hIn1 [unc-101(sy241)] I. W09C5.8. Apparent homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by unc-101-marked inversion. Heterozygotes are WT, and segregate WT, Unc-101 hIn1 homozygotes, and ok2908 homozygotes (arrest stage/phenotype undetermined). Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: TTCCTCGCTACTACCCGCTA. External right primer: CCCGTGTGTTCTGTTGTTTG. Internal left primer: CAGCCCATCTCTCAAGAAGC. Internal right primer: TCCTCTTCCACGTTTCCATC. Internal WT amplicon: 1106 bp. Deletion size: 565 bp. Deletion left flank: CCTTCTCGAGCACAAGCGCACGCTCAACCT. Deletion right flank: AATAAATAACTGGTTTATGGGTTGAAAATG. Insertion Sequence: CAAC.
