Strain Information

Name HA3299   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
Genotypesod-1(rt451[sod-1(G85RC)]) II.
DescriptionSuperficially wild-type at 25C. Can be maintained 15-25C, and latent defects observed after oxidative stress. rt451 was created by CRISPR editing of the cognate glycine codon in C. elegans sod-1 to create a disease model for human mutation SOD1 G85R. 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.

ournal.pgen.1007682).
NOTE: A micropublication (PMID: 33474528) incorrectly described sod-1 alleles in the text. This strain contains rt451, which is sod-1[G85RC], while rt449 is sod-1[G93AC] and rt448 is the wild-type control for both.
