Strain Information

Name QC154   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
Genotypepaqr-2(tm3410) III; paqr-1(tm3262) IV.
DescriptionThis double mutant strain has a severely deformed tail tip and is intolerant of cold (will not grow then die at 15°C) and of dietary saturated fatty acids. Its cell membranes are rigid and rich in saturated fatty acids, and the strain has a small brood size, slow locomotion, permeable cells, autophagy defects as well as other phenotypes.
