Strain Information

Name ZM10113   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
Genotypetwk-40(bln282[twk-40::TagRFP::ZF1]) III; hpIs727.
DescriptionhpIs727 [rig-3p::zif-1::sl2::RFP + ttx-3p::GFP]. twk-40(bln282) is a CRISPR generated allele of the endogenous twk-40 locus, inserting TagRFP and ZF1 allowing visualization of endogenous protein expression and localization as well as ZIF-1-mediated degradation. hpIs727 provides AVA neuron-specific expression of ZIF-1, leading to depletion of TWK-40 from AVA. Animals have loopy forward and reversal movements compared to twk-40(bln282) alone.
