Temperature sensitive sterility. Maintain at 15C. Enhanced sensitivity to pathogens.

feIs5 [sur-5p::luciferase::GFP + rol-6(su1006)] X. Temperature-sensitive sterile. Maintain at 15C. Rollers. Strain is bioluminescent when provided with exogenous D-luciferin (potassium salt) due to sur-5 promoter driving expression of firefly (Photinus pyralis) luciferase (lacking the peroxisome tagging signal) fused in-frame to GFP(S65C). Pick animals with high levels of fluorescence to retain expression of luciferase transgene. This strain is for academic use only. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects. References: Lagido C, et al. BMC Physiol. 2008 Apr 2;8:7. McLaggan D, et al. PLoS One. 2012;7(10):e46503.

Temperature sensitive defect in germ-line proliferation during larval development. Defect can be reversed by shifting worms from restrictive (25C) to permissive temperature (16C). Germ-line proliferation defect at restrictive temperature may be due to arrest in mitotic prophase. This strain is very useful for producing large populations of worms that essentially lack a germ line.

bqSi218 [hsp-16.41p::Dam::Myc::emr-1 + unc-119(+)] II. Strain for DamID mapping of chromatin associated with the nuclear lamina/LMN-1. Made by MosSCI using strain EG4322 for injection. Might still carry unc-119(ed9) III, which is rescued by bqSi218. Reference: González-Aguilera C, et al. Genome Biol. 2014 Feb 3;15(2):R21.

bqSi210 [lem-2p::lem-2::GFP + unc-119(+)] II. Might contain unc-119(ed3) in the background. Single-copy lem-2::GFP transgene under control of lem-2 regulatory sequences. lem-2(tm1582) embryos arrest when emr-1 is depleted by RNAi; bqSi210 fully rescues this phenotype.

Strict maternal effect sterile at 25C. TSP during embryogenesis. The progeny of homozygous mothers, raised at the restrictive temperature, are sterile. Sterile worms have dramatic reduction in number of germ cells (10-100 fold less than WT).

Heterozygotes are Unc (n754 is a dominant Unc and recessive lethal). Throws DpyUncs which give sterile progeny. The maternal effect sterility is 99% expressed, 100% strict, and is associated with 2% maternal effect embryonic lethality.
