Strain Information

Name CG1490   View On Wormbase
Species C.elegans
Genotypepck-2(rg551) I; him-5(e1490) V; sdha-1(rg550) X.
DescriptionSlow growing (4 to 7 days from L1 to adult), sluggish movement, egg-laying defective, short lifespan (~5 to 6 days adult lifespan); male mating impotent. sdha-1(rg550) is viable and likely a partial loss-of-function allele; the sdha-1(ok1908) deletion is lethal. sdha-1(rg550) is a CRISPR/Cas9 + oligo-induced gene conversion into the sdha-1 gene recapitulating a G214E substitution originally identified in an EMS mutant screen. The lesion was recreated via CRISPR/Cas9 in N2 to ensure the mutation/phenotype was not linked to other background mutations induced during mutatgenesis. rg551 is an endogenous genomic CRISPR/Cas9 knock in of YFP fused to the C-terminus of the gene pck-2 in N2 background. YFP fluorescence body wall muscle, intestine, hypodermis and pharyngeal muscle. Him. Reference: Goncalves J, et al. iScience 2020 Mar 19;23(4):100990. PMID: 32240955
