reSi7 [rgef-1p::TIR1::F2A::mTagBFP2::AID*::NLS::tbb-2 3'UTR] (I:-5.32). Neuronal-specific expression of TIR1 co-factor for AID, and tissue-specific AID*-tagged blue protein in neuronal nuclei. Auxin-inducible degradation (AID*) tag inserted at C-terminus of endogenous unc-104 locus by CRISPR/Cas9. Can be used for auxin-induced immobilization of worms for live imaging. Strain generated by crossing endogenously tagged unc-104::AID into DV3805. reSi7 is at -5.32 cM. References: Cahoon CK, Libuda DE.
