| Description | Handling: Easy to manipulate. Heterozygous males mate well. mIn1[dpy-10(e128) mIs14] carries an integrated pharyngeal GFP element; expression is semi-dominant, such that one copy of mIs14 can be distinguished from two by GFP signal brightness. REARRANGEMENT may have occurred in the integration event, as lethal mutations in the far left extent of the balanced region are not as stable over the GFP variant as they are over the original mIn1.
Recommended use: General balancing, strain construction, strain maintenance, mutant screens.
Summary: Inversion, well characterized, very stable. Very effective balancer for center portion of LG II from lin-31 through rol-1.
Growth characteristics: Original isolate marked with dpy-10(e128). Brood size similar to N2 as heterozygote. Homozygotes do not survive freezing well.
