Strains carrying this gene

Strain Genotype Description
BS14 gld-1(q266)/nDf24 I. Heterozygotes are fertile and grow more slowly than gld-1(q266) homozygotes. gld-1(q266) homozygotes are sterile and produce small abnormal oocytes. nDf24 homozygotes are dead.
BS3156 unc-13(e51) gld-1(q485)/hT2 [dpy-18(h662)] I; +/hT2 [bli-4(e937)] III. Heterozygotes are wild-type and segregate WT heterozygotes, Unc (unc-13 gld-1 homozygotes), and Dpy (hT2 homozygotes; the bli-4 mutation is suppressed by dpy-18). XX Uncs have tumorous germline and are sterile; XO Uncs are cross fertile (though they don't mate due to the Unc mutation). q485 is the canonical allele of gld-1. It behaves like deletions of the locus in complementation tests and thus is genetically null. Molecularly, it is a deletion of 82 bases and fails to produce gld-1 RNA and protein.
BS3392 gld-2(q497) gld-1(q485)/hT2 [dpy-18(h662)] I; unc-32(e189) glp-1(q175)/hT2 [bli-4(e937)] III. Heterozygotes are wild-type and segregate WT heterozygotes, Unc (gld-2 gld-1; unc-32 glp-1 homozygotes), and Dpy (hT2 homozygotes; the bli-4 mutation is suppressed by dpy-18). Check Unc-32 animals for tumors to confirm presence of glp-1 in the line. glp-1(q175) is nonsense R191 > stop (opal).
CA1352 ieSi64 II; unc-119(ed3) III. ieSi64 [gld-1p::TIR1::mRuby::gld-1 3’UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. Single copy transgene inserted into chromosome II (oxTi179) expressing a modified Arabidopsis thaliana TIR1 tagged with mRuby in the germ line and early embryos. Comparing to CA1472, this strain expresses a higher level of TIR1 and can induce a faster degradation of AID-tagged proteins in the germ line and early embryos. Reference: Zhang L, et al. Development. 2015 Nov 9. pii: dev.129635.
JK1466 gld-1(q485)/dpy-5(e61) unc-13(e51) I. Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, DpyUncs and steriles with a tumorous germline. Pick WT to maintain. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.
JK2879 gld-2(q497) gld-1(q485)/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP sterile gld-2 gld-1 homozygotes, very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. Maintain by picking wild-type GFP+. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.
JK3025 gld-1(q485) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP sterile gld-1 homozygotes, very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. Maintain by picking wild-type GFP+. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it directly from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects. Reference: Jeong J, et al. PLoS Genet. 2011 Mar;7(3):e1001348.
JK3934 gld-1(q93) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I; III). Heterozygotes are WT, GFP+ in the pharynx and segregate WT (GFP+ in the pharynx), dead eggs (hT2 homozygotes) and non-GFP gld-1(q93) homozygotes with masculinized germlines. Some heterozygotes will also have a masculinized germline. Maintain by picking GFP worms and checking for correct segregation, since the hT2 balancer is lost at low frequencies. gld-1(q93) was isolated as a dominant suppressor of fem-1(hc17).
JK4299 gld-2(q497) gld-1(q361) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). Pick GFP+ heterozygotes to maintain. Segregates fertile GFP+ heterozygotes, non-GFP homozygous mutants (Gld; form germline tumors), very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. gld-1(q361) is a missense allele but phenotypically null, which allows the detection of gld-1 mRNA and protein by single molecule FISH or antibody staining.

Segregates WT GFP+ heterozygotes, non-glowing sterile gld-1 homozygotes, very rare GFP+ homozygous hT2, and dead eggs. fem-1 is temperature sensitive; causes feminization. gld-1 homozygotes form germline tumors.
