Strains contributed by this laboratory

Strain Genotype Species Description
DC1 bah-1(br1) I. C. elegans Bah (biofilm absent on head - resistant to attachment of Yersinia sp. biofilms). Fragile cuticle (mild): increased sensitivity to alkaline-hypochlorite.
DC1079 ces-1(n703) qDf8/hT2 [bli-4(e937) let-?(q782) qIs48] (I;III). C. elegans Heterozygotes are WT and GFP+ in the pharynx. qIs48 is an insertion of ccEx9747 (carries myo-2::GFP, pes-10::GFP, and a gut enhancer fused to GFP) onto the hT2 chromosome and is homozygous lethal. Presence of ces-1 is inferred from strain construction but not experimentally verified. Note: qIs48 has been observed to recombine off hT2, typically leaving behind a functional homozygous viable hT2 with Bli-4 phenotype.
DC7 bah-2(br7) IV. C. elegans Bah (biofilm absent on head - resistant to attachment of Yersinia sp. biofilms). Fragile cuticle (mild): increased sensitivity to alkaline-hypochlorite.
DC9 bah-3(br9) I. C. elegans Bah (biofilm absent on head - resistant to attachment of Yersinia sp. biofilms). Cld: constitutive larval display of epitope recognized by monoclonal antibody M37.
JT307 egl-9(sa307) V. C. elegans 243 bp internal deletion.
XA1433 unc-36(e251) III; qaIs1400. C. elegans qaIs1400 [hsp16-2::ptx + unc-36(+)]. ptx is the gene for pertussis toxin S1 subunit from Bordetella pertussis.
