CB1598 C. elegans unc-1(e1598) X. Show Description
Coiler Unc. Dominant.
CB4017 C. elegans fem-1(hc17) him-8(e1489) IV; unc-1(e1598) X. Show Description
Severely Uncoordinated; Him; feminized at temperatures above 20C. Grow at 15C. Used for generating patroclinous WT males, by exploiting non-disjunction caused by him-8, and dominant sex-linked unc-1.
JK554 C. elegans dpy-17(e164) glp-1(q224) III; unc-1(e1598) X. Show Description
Raise at 15C. Dpy Unc. unc-102(e1598) changed to unc-1(e1598). Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC.
MT2621 C. elegans unc-1(e1598n1201) dpy-3(e27) X. Show Description
DpyUnc. Unc not dominant.
MT2624 C. elegans unc-1(e1598n1204) dpy-3(e27) X. Show Description
n1204 is a kinky Unc. Dpy.
TY2139 C. elegans mnDp66 (X;I)/yDp14 (X;I); him-8(e1489) IV; yDf13 unc-1(e1598n1201) dpy-3(e27) X. Show Description
Heterozygotes are WT hermphrodites whose progeny include WT hermaphrodites, Dpy hermaphrodites (mnDp66; yDf13 unc-1 dpy-3), WT males and Dpy males.
TY2175 C. elegans mnDp66 (X;I)/yDp14 (X;I); him-8(e1489) IV; yDf17/unc-1(e1598n1201) dpy-3(e27) X. Show Description
WT hermaphrodites whose progeny include WT hermaphrodites, Dpy hermaphrodites (mnDp66; unc-1 dpy-3), Unc hermaphrodites (yDp14; unc-1 dpy-3), DpyTra hermaphrodites (mnDp66/yDp14; yDf17), WT males, Unc males, and Dpy males. There are 2 types of WT hermaphrodites in this strain which are indistinguishable unless you score their offspring: mnDp66/yDp14; him-8; yDf17/unc-1 dpy-3 animals will have many WT males progeny; but mnDp66/yDp14; him-8; unc-1 dpy-3 animals will have primarily dpy male progeny [mnDp66/yDp14; unc-1 dpy-3 XO animals are mostly dead, but there are some escapers of lethality]. Maintain by picking L4 WT hermaphrodites and checking for correct segregation of progeny.
