ltSi953 [mec-18p::vhhGFP4::ZIF-1::operon-linker::mKate2::tbb-2 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. GFP tag inserted into the C-terminus of the endogenous gip-2 locus using CRISPR-Cas9 engineering. Tissue-specific expression of GFP nanobody::ZIF-1 fusion promotes ubiquitylation and subsequent degradation of GFP-tagged gip-2 protein in touch receptor neurons. Touch receptor neurons are red labeled with mKate2. Reference: Development. 2017 Jul 15;144(14):2694-2701. PMID: 28619826.

ltSi953 [mec-18p::vhhGFP4::ZIF-1::operon-linker::mKate2::tbb-2 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. GFP tag inserted into the C-terminus of the endogenous dhc-1 locus using CRISPR-Cas9 engineering. Tissue-specific expression of GFP nanobody::ZIF-1 fusion promotes ubiquitylation and subsequent degradation of GFP-tagged dhc-1 protein in touch receptor neurons. Touch receptor neurons are red labeled with mKate2. Reference: Development. 2017 Jul 15;144(14):2694-2701. PMID: 28619826.

ltSi953 [mec-18p::vhhGFP4::zif-1::operon-linker::mKate::tbb-2 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. Touch response neuron (TRN)-specific expression of anti-GFP nanobody fused to ZIF-1 mediates TRN-specific degradation of GFP-tagged proteins (through recruited ZIF-1 but NOT requiring ZF1 tags). Can be combined with endogenous locus GFP-tagging or rescue of a null mutant with a GFP fusion to examine TRN neuron-specific functions of target genes.
