|---|---|---|---|
| AUM1054 | gsk-3(tm2223) I/hT2[bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). | C. elegans | Homozygous sterile mutation balanced by bli-4- and GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP sterile tm2223 homozygotes. Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Furuta T, et al. Development. 2018 May 14;145(10). pii: dev161042. doi: 10.1242/dev.161042. |
| AUM1535 | drsh-1(viz43)/tmC18[dpy-5(tmIs1200[myo-2p::mVenus])] I. | C. elegans | [D943G] substitution mutation in conserved residue within RNAse III domain. Balancer marked with myo-2p::Venus. Pick fertile wild-type (non-Dpy) Venus+ to maintain. drsh-1(viz43) homozygous animals display heterochronic phenotypes beginning at L3/L4 molt and typically burst at the vulva in L4. Heterozygotes are wild-type with pharyngeal Venus fluorescence, and segregate Venus+ heterozygotes, non-Venus viz-43 homozygotes, and Dpy Venus+ tmC18 homozygotes. Reference: Barish S, et al. Human Mol Genet. 2022 Aug 25;31(17):2934-2950. doi: 10.1093/hmg/ddac085. PMID: 35405010. |
| AUM1830 | sart-3(tm6688)/tmC9 [F36H1.2(tmIs1221)] IV. | C. elegans | Homozygous sterile deletion balanced by tmC9 [F36H1.2(tmIs1221[myo-2p::Venus])]. Heterozygotes are wild-type Venus+ in pharynx, and segregate wild-type Venus+ heterozygotes, non-Venus Sterile (tm6688 homozygotes), and Venus+ Mec Unc (tmC9 homozygotes). Pick viable fertile Venus+ animals and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain.

| AUM1863 | sart-3(tm15993)/tmC9 [F36H1.2(tmIs1221)] IV. | C. elegans | Homozygous lethal deletion balanced by tmC9 [F36H1.2(tmIs1221[myo-2p::Venus])]. Heterozygotes are wild-type Venus+ in pharynx, and segregate wild-type Venus+ heterozygotes, non-Venus Sterile (tm15993 homozygotes), and Venus+ Mec Unc (tmC9 homozygotes). Pick viable fertile Venus+ animals and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. 93% of tm15993 homozygotes die before adulthood and those that escape are sterile.

| AUM1870 | ZK813.1(viz166[fln-1p::ZK813.1]) X. | C. elegans | The endogenous promoter of ZK813.1 (1046 bp) was replaced with the fln-1 promoter (947 bp) to limit the expression of ZK813.1 to the spermatheca and allow analysis of RNA transfer from soma to oocytes. Reference: Trimmer KA, et al. Cell Rep. 2023 May 23;42(6):112544. doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2023.112544. PMID: 37227820. . |
| AUM2023 | daf-2(e1370) unc-119(ed3) III; vizIs23. | C. elegans | vizIs23 [pie-1p::GFP::daf-2(WT)::pie-1 3'UTR + unc-119(+)]. Maintain at 15C; pick superficially wild-type animals to avoid silencing of the transgene. pie-1 driven DAF-2 coding region with GFP transgene rescues the germline defects of daf-2(e1370). Slow growing. The transgene is sometimes silenced in the germline resulting in dauerunc animals at 25C. Reference: Lopez AL 3rd, et al. Dev Cell. 2013 Oct 28;27(2):227-40. |
| AUM2059 | vizSi20 II; unc-119(ed3) III. | C. elegans | vizSi20 [mex-5p::GFP::gsk-3 (K65A,E77A,D161A,D180A)::tbb-2 3’UTR + unc-119(+)] II. Superficially wild-type. vizSi20 was inserted into Chr II ttTi5605 using MosSci. GSK-3 cDNA was rendered kinase dead by replacing K65, E77, D161 and D180 to alanine. The transgene does not rescue gsk-3 sterility or embryonic lethality defects. Reference: Furuta T, et al. Development. 2018 May 14;145(10). pii: dev161042. doi: 10.1242/dev.161042. |
| AUM2071 | vizSi32 II; unc-119(ed3) III. | C. elegans | vizSi32 [cdk-2p(intron)::GFP::tbb-2 3’ UTR + unc-119(+)] II. vizSi32 was inserted into ttTi5605 on Chr II using MosSci. Intron 1 of cdk-2 drives drives GFP expression in this transgene. Reference: Furuta T, et al. Development. 2018 May 14;145(10). pii: dev161042. doi: 10.1242/dev.161042. |
| AUM2073 | vizSi34 II; unc-119(ed3) III. | C. elegans | vizSi34 [cdk-2p::GFP::tbb-2 3’ UTR + unc-119(+)] II. Superficially wild-type. vizSi34 was inserted into ttTi5605 on Chr II using MosSci. Predicted cdk-2 promoter (from WormBase) drives GFP expression. Reference: Furuta T, et al. Development. 2018 May 14;145(10). pii: dev161042. doi: 10.1242/dev.161042. |
| BS3727 | lip-1(ok154) IV. | C. elegans | Temperature-sensitive allele. Can be grown at 20C with reduced fertility. Defects in pachytene progression, small oocyte formation and Emo are highly penetrant at 25C. ok154 is a null allele; 1504 bp deletion from -156 bp to +1348 bp, removes the start codon.

| BS3760 | rskn-1(ok159) I. | C. elegans | Ectopic ERK MPK-1 (detected by dpMPK-1 immunostaining) in the loop region. Reference: Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. Das D, et al. 2022 Jan 18;119(3):e2113649119. PMID: 35022236 |
