This strain allows auxin-dependent disruption of RNA polymerase II with dose-dependent lifespan shortening. Reference: Oswal N, et al. PLoS Comput Biol. 2022 Sep 30;18(9):e1010415. PMID: 36178967.

Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT (heterozygotes), Unc-4 worms which are strong Egl (ty4 homozygotes), and paralyzed Dpy Uncs (mnC1 homozygotes).

Egl. Premature stop codon.

adeIs1 [mex-5::spd-1::GFP + unc-119(+)] II. The transgene has been inserted on chromosome II, using the MosSCI technique. This strains expresses the SPD-1 protein fused to GFP in the germline (both males and females) and in embryos. SPD-1 is nucleolar in interphase and labels the central spindle in mitosis and meiosis, later accumulating at the midbody. Reference: Nahaboo W, et al. Mol Biol Cell. 2015 Jun 1;26(11):2020-9. doi: 10.1091/mbc.E14-12-1577.

SPD-1::GFP and mCherry-tagged histones allow visualisation of chromatin with central spindle/midbody during cell divisions. Reference: Nahaboo W, et al. Mol Biol Cell. 2015 Jun 1;26(11):2020-9.
