Strains contributed by this laboratory

Strain Genotype Species Description
CT11 hbl-1(mg285) X. C. elegans Egl. Slightly Pvl.
CT12 zaEx5. C. elegans zaEx5 [let-7::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. The GFP+ animals may not always express the Roller phenotype.
CT15 zaEx16. C. elegans zaEx16 [mir-84::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. The GFP+ animals may not always express the Roller phenotype.
CT16 zaEx17. C. elegans zaEx17 [lin-4::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. The GFP+ animals may not always express the Roller phenotype.
CT17 zaEx18. C. elegans zaEx18 [mir-237::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. The GFP+ animals may not always express the Roller phenotype.
CT18 zaEx19. C. elegans zaEx19 [mir-48::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. The GFP+ animals may not always express the Roller phenotype.
CT20 zaIs5. C. elegans zaIs5 [alg-1p::GFP::alg-1 + rol-6(su1006)]. Some GFP+ animals do not roll. GFP::ALG-1 expression throughout development, detectable as punctate cytoplasmic granules. Maintain by picking rollers. Reference: Chan SP, Slack FJ. Dev Biol. 2009 Oct 1;334(1):152-60.
CT21 zaIs2. C. elegans zaIs2 [lin-14::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers, though Rol is not completely penetrant, Reference: Olsson-Carter K, Slack FJ. PLoS Genet. 2010 Aug 5;6(8). pii: e1001054.
CT22 zaIs6. C. elegans zaIs6 [mir-239.1p::GFP + myo-2p::DsRed]. Reference: de Lencastre A, et al. Curr Biol. 2010 Dec 21;20(24):2159-68.
CT8 lin-41(ma104) I. C. elegans Dpy. Precocious heterochronic. Reduced brood size. There may be a linked Dpy mutation in this strain.
MT7897 lin-41(n2914)/unc-29(e1072) lin-11(n1281) I. C. elegans Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, UncVul and lin-41 (Dpy, Scrawny and Sterile).
