Strain Information

Name ZM8428   View On Wormbase
Species C. elegans
GenotypehpIs459.
DescriptionhpIs459 [unc-4p::GCaMP3::wCherry + lin-15(+)]. Strong GCaMP3 and wCherry expression in A-class motor neurons, as well as some head and tail neurons. It is recommended to use L4 stage animals when using this strain for calcium imaging and recording. Transgene expression becomes dimmer in many A-class neurons (except DA9), and is expression in VC neurons of adults.
