TY5434 C. elegans syIs44 V. Show Description
syIs44 [hsp-16p::lacI::GFP + lacO(256) + dpy-20(+)] V. Heatshock induces expression of lacI::GFP in the soma, which binds to integrated lacO arrays. lacI::GFP expression is silenced in the germline. Derived by out-crossing PS2442 to remove e1282. Reference: Severson AF & Meyer BJ. Elife. 2014 Aug 29;3:e03467.
PS2442 C. elegans dpy-20(e1282) IV; syIs44 V. Show Description
syIs44 [hsp-16p::lacI::GFP + lacO(256) + dpy-20(+)] V. Non-Dpy. Upon heat shock, two intense spots of nuclear fluorescence due to lacO in the chromosome, and a diffuse nuclear fluorescence due to nuclear-localized GFP-lacI. Array derived from Fire Lab vector pPD49-78 and dpy-20 rescuing construct pMH86. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC.
