Strain Genotype Species Description
SRS167 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X. C. elegans Maintain at 15C. No Progeny at 25C; little response to blue light. References: Granato M, et al. Nucleic Acids Res. 1994 May 11;22(9):1762-3. Edwards SL, et al. PLoS Biol. 2008 Aug 5;6(8):e198.
SRS230 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx230. C. elegans sraEx230 [str-2p::Arch::TagRFP + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses TagRFP in AWC(on) and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR the reversal rate of the animal is decreased upon symmetrical stimulation, and asymmetrical stimulation causes the worm to turn in the same direction the head was bent when AWC(on) was inhibited. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS278 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx278. C. elegans sraEx278 [npr-9p::Arch::TagRFP + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses TagRFP in AIB and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR the reversal rate of the animal is decreased upon symmetrical stimulation. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS279 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx279. C. elegans sraEx279 [ttx-3p::Arch::TagRFP + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses TagRFP in AIY and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR the reversal rate of the animal is increased upon symmetrical stimulation, and asymmetrical stimulation causes the worm to turn in the opposite direction to which the head was bent when AIY was excited. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS281 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx281. C. elegans sraEx281 [ttx-3p::chop-2(H134R)::TagRFP + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses TagRFP in AIY and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR the reversal rate of the animal is decreased upon symmetrical stimulation, and asymmetrical stimulation causes the worm to turn in the same direction the head was bent when AIY was excited. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS291 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx291. C. elegans sraEx291 [npr-9p::chop-2(H134R)::TagRFP + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses TagRFP in AIB and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR the reversal rate of the animal is increased upon symmetrical stimulation. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS301 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx301. C. elegans sraEx301 [str-2p::chop-2(H134R)::TagRFP + str-2p::TagRFP + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses TagRFP in AWC(on) and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR the reversal rate of the animal is increased upon symmetrical stimulation, and asymmetrical stimulation causes the worm to turn in the opposite direction to which the head was bent when AWC(on) was excited. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS306 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx306. C. elegans sraEx306 [ser-2(prom2)::chop-2(H134R)::TagRFP + ser-2(prom2)::mKO + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses mKO and TagRFP in AIY, AIZ and RME in the head, and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR asymmetrical stimulation of AIY causes the worm to turn in the same direction the head was bent when AIY was excited, whereas asymmetrical stimulation of AIZ or RME causes the worm to turn in the opposite direction to which the head was bent when AIZ or RME was excited. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
SRS329 pha-1(e2123) III; lite-1(ce314) X; sraEx329. C. elegans sraEx329 [odr-2(18)p::chop-2(H134R)::TagRFP + odr-2(18)p::mKO + pBX(pha-1(+))]. Maintain at 25C. This transgenic line expresses mKO and TagRFP in SMB in the head, and has little response to blue light in the absence of ATR. In the presence of ATR asymmetrical stimulation of SMB causes the worm to turn in the same direction the head was bent when SMB was excited. Reference: Kocabas A, et al. Nature. 2012 Sep 23. doi: 10.1038/nature11431.
