Strain Information

Name VC2366   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
Genotypeunc-22(gk1237gk1238) IV.
DescriptionUnc-22 twitcher. The gk1237 lesion is a point mutation (C to A) with flanks TTCCATATGGATTGGACACCTCGACTGTGT and CTCTCCAGCATCAATGTCCCAAACTTCCTT. The gk1238 lesion is a 122-bp deletion with flanks CTCCATCACTTGCTTCGAATCTATATCTGC and ACGATTTGTGGGCGACTTCCACCGGATTCC, and a single inserted base (C) at the break. Primers to amplify the region are: cggatgcttggaacaaagtt and tgctcgtgtcactggacttc. This strain was isolated after UV/TMP mutagenesis of VC2010 and subjected to whole-genome sequencing (Flibotte et al., Genetics 185: 431 - 441 (2010). In addition to unc-22(gk1237gk1238), it is homozygous for 90 other mutations determined from sequence data. All mutations are annotated in WormBase. Attribution: This strain was provided by the C. elegans Reverse Genetics Core Facility at the University of British Columbia, which is part of the International C. elegans Gene Knockout Consortium, which should be acknowledged in any publications resulting from its use.
