The Null Transcriptional Reporter (NuTR) cassette was used to remove the lep-5 locus resulting in a null allele and transcriptional reporter driving expression of GFP. The cassette contains the dominant sqt-1(e1350) allele that results in roller animals. Expression of Cre (via crossing into a strain expressing a germline Cre or by injection of a Cre transgene) will result in removal of the selectable markers and result in non-roller animals. Pick Rollers to retain full transgene cassette. Males exhibit typical leptoderan tails.

umnIs78 [myo-2p::mKate2 + NeoR, I: 12541645 (intergenic)] I. Heterozygous strain. Crossover suppressor for LGI right. Inversion includes unc-75 and unc-54(h1040). Heterozygotes are wild-type (not paralyzed) with dim mKate2 expression in pharynx, and segregate heterozygotes (not paralyzed, dim mKate2), homozygous wild-type (not paralyzed, no mKate2), and hIn1 homozygotes (paralyzed, bright mKate2). Pick non-paralyzed, dim mKate2 worms and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Maintain at 20C or higher: recombined balancer seems more prone to breaking down at low temperatures. Derived by crossing parental strain CGC105 (hIn1[umnIs78]) to RG3173 (Y40B1B.7(ve673[LoxP + myo-2p::GFP::unc-54 3' UTR + rps-27p::neoR::unc-54 3' UTR + LoxP])/hIn1[unc-54(h1040)]) and selecting for the recombined hIn1 worms.
