sEx10059 [rCes Y71F9AL.17::GFP + pCeh361]. Maintain by picking WT. WT animals are GFP+. Strain construction supported by Genome British Columbia and Genome Canada. Please acknowledge McKay et al, Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology 68: 159-169 2004 (WBPaper00006525).

Y71F9AL.17. Homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by bli-4- and GFP-marked translocation. Heterozygotes are WT with pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT GFP, arrested hT2 aneuploids, and non-GFP ok2824 homozygotes (embryonic or early larval arrest). Homozygous hT2[bli-4 let-? qIs48] inviable. Pick WT GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: ACTTTGACTTTTGCCCCCTT. External right primer: TCAGCAAGGATGTTGCTCTG. Internal left primer: AGCTGTCTGGAAATGTCCGT. Internal right primer: CTCCGTTACCCACAACCATT. Internal WT amplicon: 1146 bp. Deletion size: 766 bp. Deletion left flank: TGACAAGCTTATCCGTATTTCCAGTAACAA. Deletion right flank: AGCCGTGTTGATATTCTCGAGTTTGCGAAG. Insertion Sequence: GATACAAAAACGAGAGCTTCTCAAAGTTTTT.
