| AGK192 | unc-119(ed3) III; zdIs13 IV; armIs5. | C. elegans | zdIs13 [tph-1p::GFP] IV. armIs5 [zfp-1(fosmid)::FLAG + unc-119(+)]. Integrated zfp-1 transgene expressed in the germline. Fosmid-based zfp-1::FLAG transgene fully rescues stress-sensitivity and reduced lifespan in zfp-1(ok554) homozygotes. ChIP with anti-FLAG antibody detects ZFP-1::FLAG localization to promoters of highly expressed genes. References: Mansisidor AR, et al. PLoS Genet. 2011 Sep;7(9):e1002299. Avgousti DC, et al. Mol Cell Biol. 2013 Mar;33(5):999-1015. Cecere G, et al. Mol Cell. 2013 Jun 27;50(6):894-907. |
| AGK233 | unc-119(ed3) III; niDf199 IV; armEx58. | C. elegans | armEx58 [WRM0611aH08-Del8mer + unc-119(+)]. Pick non-Unc to maintain. This strain contains a transgenic array that expresses a derivative WRM0611aH08 fosmid. The WRM0611aH08 fosmid contains the niDF199 locus (around 4 kb) that is deleted in the natural C. elegans isolate strain JU258. JU258 worms lack specific 21U-RNAs normally present in N2 worms due to this deletion of the niDF199 locus. This derivative fosmid construct lacks the upstream 8-mer motif (CTGTTTCA) next to 21U-3372. The expression of this individual 21U-RNA is lost in transgenic animals. unc-119(ed3) was crossed into JU258, the niDf199IV deletion was confirmed by PCR, and these Unc worms were used for bombardment. Reference: Cecere G, et al. Mol Cell. 2012 Sep 14;47(5):734-45. |
| AGK234 | unc-119(ed3) III; niDf199 IV; armEx53. | C. elegans | armEx53 [WRM0611aH08 + unc-119(+)]. Pick non-Unc to maintain. unc-119(ed3) was crossed into JU258, the niDf199IV deletion was confirmed by PCR, and these Unc worms were used for bombardment. This strain contains a transgenic array that expresses the WRM0611aH08 fosmid construct. This fosmid contains the niDF199 locus (around 4 kb) that is deleted in the natural C. elegans isolate strain JU258. JU258 worms lack specific 21U-RNAs normally present in N2 worms due to this deletion of the niDF199 locus. Expression of this fosmid construct in JU258 worms restores the expression of the missing 21U-RNAs in the germline, as measured by RT-qPCR. Reference: Cecere G, et al. Mol Cell. 2012 Sep 14;47(5):734-45. |
| AGK26 | unc-119(ed3) III; armEx5. | C. elegans | armEx5 [zfp-1(fosmid)::GFP + unc-119(+)]. Pick non-Unc to maintain. Fosmid-based zfp-1::GFP transgene fully rescues stress-sensitivity and reduced lifespan in zfp-1(ok554) homozygotes. Nuclear expression of zfp-1::GFP is observed ubiquitously in somatic cells in all developmental stages; high levels of GFP expression is observed in oocytes with lower levels of expression in the distal germline.

The fosmid-based armEx14 transgene rescues zfp-1(ok554)/nDf17 lethality. Reference: Avgousti DC, et al. Mol Cell Biol. 2013 Mar;33(5):999-1015. |
| AGK369 | zfp-1(ok554) III; armIs8. | C. elegans | armIs8 [zfp-1(short isoform)::FLAG::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers. The fosmid-based armIs8 transgene rescues the protruded vulva phenotype of zfp-1(ok554). Ubiquitous nuclear localization of zfp-1(long isoform)::FLAG::GFP is observed in somatic cells in all developmental stages, but is silenced in the germline.

| AGK587 | armEx227. | C. elegans | armEx227 [pak-1p::NLS::tagRFP + rol-6(su1006)].
