syIs105 [egl-30::GFP + dpy-20(+)]. Translational fusion contains all of the presumptive 5'-transcriptional regulatory sequences, introns, and presumptive 3 regulatory sequences for egl-30, in addition to the coding sequences for GFP just 5' of the egl-30 initiating methionine. syIs105 was found to partially rescue egl-30(md186) with respect to egg laying, movement, pharyngeal pumping, and response to neurotransmitters in egg-laying assays.

Males mate better as heterozygotes.

Heterozygotes are GFP+. mIn1 homozygotes are Dpy and GFP+. let-23(sy12) homozygotes are non-GFP.
