rmIs126 [unc-54p::Q0::YFP]. Diffuse distribution of Q0::YFP throughout the body-wall muscle cells. Worms maintain a soluble phenotype for the duration of their lifespan. [NOTE: This strain is a replacement for AM134, which was removed from distribution due to reports that it did not carry the correct transgene.]

rmIs132 [unc-54p::Q35::YFP]. AM140 animals show a Q35::YFP progressive transition from soluble to aggregated as they age.

rmIs133 [unc-54p::Q40::YFP]. AM141 animals show a soluble Q40::YFP distribution in body wall muscle cells immediately after hatching. As these worms age the rapid formation of foci is observed. When they reach adulthood, AM141 animals show an entirely Q40::YFP aggregated phenotype.
