Strain Genotype Species Description
MQD1543 daf-16(hq23[daf-16::GFP]) I. C. elegans GFP tag inserted at the 3' end of the endogenous daf-16 gene locus by CRISPR/Cas9 engineering. The GFP fusion tag does not interfere with the function of DAF-16 protein. DAF-16::GFP is expressed ubiquitously in most or all somatic tissues, including neurons, intestine, body wall muscles, and hypodermis, and also in the germ cells and oocytes. Reference: Zhang Y, et al. BioRxiv. 2021 Aug 2. 2007.2031.454567. https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.07.31.454567.
MQD1661 daf-2(hq61[daf-2::mNeongreen]) III. C. elegans mNeonGreen tag inserted at the 3' end of the endogenous daf-2 gene locus by CRISPR/Cas9 engineering. Phenotypic assays have shown that this mNeonGreen tag does not perturb the function of the DAF-2 protein. DAF-2::mNeonGreen is expressed in neurons, XXX cells, vulval cells, germ cells, and oocytes with clear plasma membrane localization as expected for a cell surface receptor. Reference: Zhang Y, et al. BioRxiv. 2021 Aug 2. 2007.2031.454567. https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.07.31.454567.
MQD1779 daf-2(hq63[daf-2::ICR::NLS::gfp::mNeonGreen::NLS]) III. C. elegans Nuclear Ultrabright GFP::mNeonGreen Fluorescent protein (NuGFP) tag inserted downstream of the endogenous daf-2 gene locus by CRISPR/Cas9 engineering. NuGFP cassette is composed of an intercistronic region (ICR) from the C. elegans SL2-type operon, a SV40 nuclear localization sequence (NLS), the coding sequence of GFP, the coding sequence of mNeonGreen, and egl-13 NLS. The expression of NuGFP is tied to that of the endogenous daf-2, but after trans-splicing, the NuGFP protein is synthesized independently of DAF-2. This high-sensitivity daf-2 expression reporter was readily detectable in most C. elegans cells throughout development and adulthood. Reference: Zhang Y, et al.
