Strain Information

Name HA2987   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
Genotypesod-1(rt449[G93AC]) II; vsIs48.
DescriptionvsIs48 [unc-17::GFP]. Superficially wild-type at 25C. Can be maintained 15-25C, and latent defects observed after oxidative stress. GFP expressed in all cholinergic neurons. rt449 was created by CRISPR editing of the cognate glycine codon in C. elegans sod-1 to create a disease model for human mutation SOD1 G93A. This strain contains additional silent edits in sod-1, and was back-crossed to remove the edited pha-1 allele used in strain construction. The appropriate control is HA2986.

NOTE: A micropublication (PMID: 33474528) incorrectly described sod-1 alleles in the text. This strain contains rt449, which is sod-1[G93AC], while rt451 is sod-1[G85RC] and rt448 is the wild-type control for both.
