Strain Genotype Species Description
BU7222 pat-3(st564) III; kqEx73. C. elegans kqEx73 [pat-3(sp) + rab-3::RFP + cki-1::GFP]. Pick RFP+ to maintain. kqEx73 carries a form of pat-3 gene with splicing defects; rescues pat-3 null allele. pat-3(sp) is a frameshift mutation in the splice acceptor region (ag to aa) that abolishes conserved interaction domains such as the NPxY motifs and creates a splice variant with an extra 19 amino acids. The pat-3(sp) animals not only produce mutant pat-3, but also express the regular splice form due to utilization of an unusual splice acceptor. Abnormal Distal Tip Cell migration and pat-3 gene splicing (intron 7) defects. Reference: Kihira S, et al. PLoS One. 2012;7(8):e42425.
BU8041 pat-3(kq8041) III. C. elegans Mild motility and gonad migration defects. pat-3(kq8041) is an engineered Y804A substitution of the membrane distal tyrosine in the cytoplasmic domain. Reference: Hanna J, et al., microPublication Biology. 10.17912/micropub.biology.000291. https://www.micropublication.org/journals/biology/micropub-biology-000291
BU8042 pat-3(kq8042) III. C. elegans Motility and cell (DTC) migration defects. pat-3(kq8042) is an engineered Y804E substitution of the membrane distal tyrosine in the cytoplasmic domain. Reference: Hanna J, et al., microPublication Biology. 10.17912/micropub.biology.000291. https://www.micropublication.org/journals/biology/micropub-biology-000291
BU8043 pat-3(kq8043) III. C. elegans Mild motility and cell migration defects. pat-3(kq8043) is an engineered Y804F substitution of the membrane distal tyrosine in the cytoplasmic domain. Reference: Hanna J, et al., microPublication Biology. 10.17912/micropub.biology.000291. https://www.micropublication.org/journals/biology/micropub-biology-000291
JE32 pat-3(st564) III; mwEx32. C. elegans mwEx32 [pat-3(YYFF) + sur-5::GFP]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. mwEx32 carries a mutant form of pat-3 gene with tyrosine (Y) to phenylalanine (F) mutations; rescues pat-3 null allele. Abnormal DTC migration. Reference: Lee M, et al. J Biol Chem. 2001 Sep 28;276(39):36404-10.
JE443 pat-3(st564) III; mwEx443. C. elegans mwEx443 [pat-3(+) + sur-5::GFP]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. mwEx443 contains wild type contains pat-3 genomic DNA, rescues pat-3 null allele. Reference: Lee M, et al. J Biol Chem. 2001 Sep 28;276(39):36404-10.
