Strains contributed by this laboratory

Strain Genotype Species Description
IX3447 kyIs140 I; vyEx1462. C. elegans kyIs140 [str-2::GFP + lin-15(+)] I. vyEx1462 (die-1(fosmid)::Venus + odr-1::DsRed + ofm-1::DsRed). Pick animals with DsRed+ coelomocytes to maintain. Animals with vyEx1462 show 2AWC(OFF) phenotype. Extrachromosomal array rescues die-1(w34).
IX3597 kyIs140 I; vyEx1510. C. elegans kyIs140 [str-2::GFP + lin-15(+)] I. vyEx1510 (ceh-36p::die-1(cDNA) + odr-1::DsRed + ofm-1::DsRed). Pick animals with DsRed+ coelomocytes to maintain. Animals with vyEx1510 show 2AWC(OFF) phenotype.
IX4506 mls-2(vy248[mNG::mls-2]) X. C elegans mNG tag inserted into endogenous mls-2 locus after the start codon using CRISPR/Cas9 engineering, producing a translational mNG::MLS-2 reporter protein. Derived by SEC excision of mls-2(vy247[mNG::SEC::mls-2 knock-in]) in parental strain. mNG::MLS-2 is detected in the nucleus of a few cells in embryos, and localizes to the nucleus of a subset of head cells and the M mesoblast in larvae and adults.
