Strains contributed by this laboratory

Strain Genotype Species Description
KP1008 egl-36(n728n398) X. C. elegans Reference: Elkes DA, et al. Neuron. 1997 Jul;19(1):165-74.
KP1097 dgk-1(nu62) X. C. elegans Hyperactive locomotion and egg-laying. Hypersensitive to aldicarb. Suppresses goa-1(gf). Allelic to sag-1.
KP1148 nuIs25. C. elegans nuIs25 [glr-1p::glr-1::GFP + lin-15(+)]. Reference: Rango C, et al. Cell. 1998 Sep 18;94(6):751-9.
KP1182 acy-1(nu329) III. C. elegans No obvious phenotype on its own. Suppresses cell swelling and death caused by expression of a GTPase defective Gxs subunit expressed from the glr-1 promoter, semi-dominant. Strongest allele.
KP1287 nuIs26 IV. C. elegans nuIs26 [cat-1::GFP] IV. nuIs26 contains a full length CAT-1::GFP fusion protein (with GFP fused at the predicted carboxy terminus of CAT-1). This transgene rescues the hyperactive locomotion defect of cat-1(e1111). This strain is slightly sluggish for locomotion and has a high degree of sterility (80%), both of which appear to be associated with the transgene. GFP expression in this strain is similar to the CAT expression pattern described by Duerr et al (1999) J Neurosci 19: 72-84.
KP2048 ric-7(nu447) V. C. elegans Reference: Hao Y, et al. PLoS Genet. 2012 Jan;8(1):e1002464.
KP2342 pkc-1(nu448) V. C. elegans
KP2932 lin-23(nu412)/mnC1 [dpy-10(e128) unc-52(e444)] II. C. elegans
KP3814 nuIs152 II. C. elegans nuIs152 [unc-129p::GFP::snb-1 + ttx-3p::mRFP] II.
KP3947 nuIs183. C. elegans nuIs183 [unc-129p::nlp-21::Venus + myo-2p::GFP]. [NOTE: nuIs183 was previously described as carrying myo-2p::NLS::GFP.] Reference: Sieburth D, et al. Nat Neurosci. 2007 Jan;10(1):49-57.
KP3948 eri-1(mg366) IV; lin-15B(n744) X. C. elegans Enhanced RNAi. Temperature sensitive sterile at 25C. Grow at 15 to 20C.
KP3957 nuIs190 X. C. elegans nuIs190 [unc-129p::ins-22::Venus + myo-2p::NLS::GFP] X. Pick GFP+ to maintain. Not all animals express GFP. Array might be prone to silencing or not homozygous. [NOTE: nuIs190 was previously described as carrying myo-2p::GFP without an NLS.] Reference: Ch'ng Q, Sieburth D, Kaplan JM. PLoS Genet. 2008 Nov;4(11):e1000283.
KP3972 nuIs184 X. C. elegans nuIs184 [unc-129p::apt-4::GFP + myo-2p::GFP] X.
KP3991 nuIs145 V. C. elegans nuIs145 [glr-1p::vps-4(dominant negative)] V. Reference: Chun DK, et al. Mol Biol Cell. 2008 Jul;19(7):2682-95.
KP4 glr-1(n2461) III. C. elegans pka not-3. Loss of function allele. Defective in response to nose touch but not to osmotic repellents.
KP4211 nuIs214 III. C. elegans nuIs214 [unc-129p::itsn-1::GFP + myo-2p::GFP] III.
KP5445 nuIs165. C. elegans nuIs165 [unc-129p::unc-10::GFP + myo-2p::GFP] II.
KP5832 unc-108(nu415) I. C. elegans Reference: Chun DK, et al. Mol Biol Cell. 2012; 19, 2682-95.
KP6200 ckr-2(tm3082) III. C. elegans Reference: Hu Z, et al. Neuron. 2011 Jul 14;71(1):92-102.
