Strains contributed by this laboratory
Strain | Genotype | Species | Description |
---|---|---|---|
AV267 | syp-3(me42)/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). | C. elegans | Heterozygotes are WT and GFP+. Segregate syp-3(me42) homozygotes that are non-GFP and lay mostly dead eggs; these mutants form abnormal synaptonemal complex formation during meiosis. Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] animals are inviable. |
CV199 | fan-1(tm423) IV/nT1 [qIs51] (IV;V). | C. elegans | Maintain under normal condition. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested nT1[qIs51] aneuploids, and non-GFP fan-1 homozygotes. Homozygous nT1[qIs51] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Smogorzewska A, et al. (2010) Molec Cell 39:36-47. |
CV2 | syp-3(ok758)/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). | C. elegans | Heterozygotes are WT and GFP+. Segregate syp-3(ok758) homozygotes that are non-GFP and lay mostly dead eggs; these mutants lack synaptonemal complex formation during meiosis. Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] animals are inviable. |
CV203 | rjSi1 II. | C. elegans | rjSi1 [cra-1p::cra-1::GFP::cra-1 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. Single copy insertion. cra-1 promoter, cra-1::GFP and 3'UTR was cloned into pCFJ150 (ttTi5605) vector and inserted into ttTi5605 of EG4322 strain. Outcrossed three times to N2 Bristol; could still carry unc-119(ed9) in the background. Superficially wild-type. This CRA-1::GFP fusion construct has been shown to be functional and its localization reflects endogenous CRA-1 localization. rjSi1 transgene can rescue synapsis defects of cra-1 mutants and restore cross-over events (six bivalents instead of the 11 to 12 univalents characteristic of cra-1 mutants). Brood size and embryonic lethality were significantly, albeit not completely, restored in the rescued line suggesting that the GFP tag might affect other CRA-1 functions. Reference: Gao J, et al. PLOS Genetics 11(3): e1005029. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1005029 |
CV385 | acer-1(rj15) II. | C. elegans | acer-1(rj15) is a 7 nt deletion (removes nt 35-41 from the start codon) resulting in an out-of-frame deletion. Increased histone acetylation. Reference: Gao J, et al., PLoS Genet. 2015 Mar 13;11(3):e1005029. |
CV78 | cra-1(tm2144) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). | C. elegans | Homozygous lethal allele 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 cra-1(tm2144) homozygotes (99.7% embryonic lethality, 61% larval lethality, Him). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Smolikove S, et al. (2008) PLoS Genet 4(6):e1000088. |
CV87 | syp-4(tm2713) I/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). | C. elegans | Homozygous lethal allele 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 syp-4(tm2713) homozygotes (viable but throw 97% dead eggs, 40% males). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Smolikove S, et al. (2009) PLoS Genet 5(10):e1000669. |
CV98 | him-18(tm2181)/qC1 [dpy-19(e1259) glp-1(q339) qIs26] III. | C. elegans | qIs26 [lag-2::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Heterozygous animals show roller phenotype and GFP signal at the distal tip cells. Segregates roller GFP(+) heterozygotes, wild-type moving GFP(-) him-18(tm2181) homozygotes. qC1 [dpy-19(e1259) glp-1(q339) qIs26] homozygous animals are dead. P0 him-18(tm2181) homozygous animals show 80% embryonic lethality and 12% high incidence of male at F1. Pick roller GFP(+) worms to maintain. Reference: Saito TT, et al. (2009) PLoS Genet 5:e1000735. |
