hyEx167 [4.5kb aff-1p::GFP transcriptional fusion + rol-6(su1006)]. Shows cytoplasmic GFP expression in embryonic hyp5. In L1 hermaphrodite larva, aff-1::GFP is expressed in pharyngeal muscle 3 and 5, in sheath cells of chemosensory neurons, and in tail neurons. In L3 hermaphrodites, the transgene is expressed in the anchor cell; this expression proceeds in L4 along with expression in the utse cells, the seam cells and cells of vulval rings A and D. In adults, aff-1::GFP is expressed in the sheath cells of chemosensory neurons and in head interneurons, uterus toroids 2 and 4, in the vulva VulD, utse, and seam cells. Worms of hyEx167 are slightly Egl. Maintain by picking Rollers.

A 1.2 kb deletion in aff-1 (C44B7.3) which introduce stop codon after alanine 47. AFF-1 is a type I membrane protein necessary and sufficient for specific cell fusion events during embryonic and larval development. Temperature sensitivity was not detected. At 20° the fusion of hyp5 in the embryo does not occur as well as anchor cell (AC) fusion, vulval cells fusion of the A and D rings and the terminal fusion between the seam cells late in L4. 6% L1 rod-like lethal and 0% embryonic lethal. Adults are completely Egl, and partially Unc, Pvl. In addition, only 2% of AC in the mutant worms undergo fusion. These animals give very low brood size (16 progeny per worm) and 3.4% of the worms are sterile. This strain gives very small brood size and hence grows slowly. Originally from Shohei Mitani, Tokyo Women's Medical College, Tokyo, Japan.

Slow postembryonic development. Reduced brood size. Previously known as pep-2. [NOTE: the genotype of this strain was previously incorrectly annotated as lg1601. The correct allele name is lg601.] Reference: Meissner B, et al. J Biol Chem. 2004 Aug 27;279(35):36739-45.

byIs162 [rab-3p::F3(delta)K280 I277P I380P + myo-2p::mCherry]. Pan-neuronal over-expression of the F3 pro aggregation fragment of the human Tau protein with K280 deleted and two isoleucines to proline substitutions in the hexapeptide motifs of the repeat region (line A).

Strain co-expressing the F3(delta)K280 anti-aggregation Tau fragment (with two I to P substitutions) and full-length Tau in all neurons. Red and green fluorescence in the pharynx due to the co-injection markers. The F3/2P fragment is not able to nucleate aggregation of full length Tau. bkIs10 contains an integrated transgene encoding the 1N4R isoforms of human tau with the 337M FTDP-17 mutation. Expression is driven by the pan-neuronal promoter aex-3. Over-expression of this transgene results in a pronounced Unc phenotype. Reference: Fatouros C, et al.

Red and green fluorescence in the pharynx due to the co-injection markers. bkIs10 contains an integrated transgene encoding the 1N4R isoforms of human tau with the 337M FTDP-17 mutation.

antIs30 [attP-f + Cbr-unc-119(+) + glh-2p::phiC31 + rol-6(partial) + myo-2p::GFP + attP-r] II. antIs30 was inserted into ttTi5605 on LG II using MosSCI. GFP expression in pharynx is very weak (as it is single copy) and is easiest to see during the L1-L3 stages. This strain contains a phiC31 docking site and can be used for precise single-copy integration of transgenes via recombination mediated cassette exchange. The docking site contains inverted phiC31-attP sites flanking phiC31 integrase expressed from the glh-2 germline promoter. Integration constructs need to have inverted phiC31-attB sites that flank the intended sequence to be inserted. Reference: Yang FJ, et al.

antIs31 [attP-f + Cbr-unc-119(ant40) + glh-2p::phiC31 + rol-6(partial) + myo-2p::GFP + attP-r] II. Unc. antIS31 has been found to self-excise; check for GFP expression periodically to retain the insertion. GFP expression in pharynx is very weak (as it is in single copy) and is easiest to see during the L1-L3 stages. This strain contains a phiC31 docking site and can be used for precise single-copy integration of transgenes via recombination mediated cassette exchange. The docking site contains inverted phiC31-attP sites flanking phiC31 integrase expressed from the glh-2 germline promoter. Integration constructs need to have inverted phiC31-attB sites that flank the intended sequence to be inserted. antIs31 was derived by CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of Cbr-unc-119 in antIs30 creating ant40, a 691 bp deletion in Cbr-unc-119. Because antIs31 does not rescue unc-119(ed3), BRC566 facilitates the use of Unc-119 rescue as a selection marker for transgene insertions. Reference: Yang FJ, et al.

Chinese rhabditis hermaphrodite nematode from Bill Wood's Chinese collection, Beijing. According to David Fitch this strain is Panagrolaimus sp. April 2008: According to sequence data from Howe & Denver 2008 BMC Evol Biol 8:62, strain BW287 is C. briggsae.

Maintain at 15C. Temperature sensitive embryonic lethal. Sterile at 25C. Congenic strain, N2 and Bergerac BE. This allele should NOT be assumed to define a gene to which someone gave the name zyg-12. This name should not be used unless someone finds a non-complementing Bristol mutation. There is no evidence at present that the ts results from a single gene defect. Has been backcrossed >6 times to Bristol strains and should only contain Bergerac DNA in the unc-85 to dpy-10 region.

This strain is tolerant to acute treatment of ethanol. The severity and incidence of stress-induced tremors are greater than in wild-type. Reference: Jee C, et al. Genes Brain Behav. 2013 Mar;12(2):250-62.

egIs1 [dat-1p::GFP] Bright GFP observable in dopamine neuronal soma and processes. For some reason this strain is resistant to neurotoxic effects of 6-OHDA compared to an independent strain BY200 (Nass et al., 2002). Or maybe BY200 is more sensitive to 6-OHDA due to its co-injection marker gene rol-6?
