Rearrangement Information

NamemnDp34 View on WormBase
DescriptionHandling: These duplications tend to segregate from the X chromosome in male spermatogenesis. Summary: mnDp34-36 are independently isolated free duplications with apparently identical genetic extents. Well characterized, do not recombine with normal homologues. Very effective balancers for right portion of LG II from around unc-52 through unc-53. Recommended use: General balancing; strain construction, strain maintenance.

Strains carrying this rearrangement

Strain Genotype Species Description
RW6010 unc-52(st549) II; mnDp34 (II;f). C. elegans Maintain by picking WT animals and checking that they throw PATs. st545 is a recessive lethal which causes a "severe" PAT phenotype. Most PATs hatch and are easy to spot as misshapen 2-fold larvae. Strain will break down, so be sure to check that the WT are throwing PATs.
RW6011 unc-52(st546) II; mnDp34 (II;f). C. elegans Maintain by picking WT animals and checking that they throw PATs. st546 is a recessive lethal which causes a "severe" PAT phenotype. Most PATs hatch and are easy to spot as misshapen 2-fold larvae. Strain will break down, so be sure to check that the WT are throwing PATs.
SP306 mnC1 [dpy-10(e128) unc-52(e444)/unc-4(e120) unc-52(e444)] II; mnDp34 (II;f). C. elegans Maintain by picking WT. Segregates WT (hets with the duplication), paralyzed Unc (hets without the duplication or unc-4 unc-52 homozygotes without the duplication), DpyUnc (mnC1 dpy-10 unc-52 homozygotes without the duplication), Dpy (mnC1 dpy-10 unc-52 homozygotes with the duplication), and Unc-4 (unc-4 unc-52 with the duplication).
