Curr Biol. 2022 Nov 7;32(21):4631-4644.e5. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2022.09.002. PMID: 36182701.

hpIs190 [nmr-1p::D3cpv + lin-15(+)]. Strong fluorescent marker for Ca2+ imaging (FRET) AVA, AVE, AVD, RIM and a few other neurons. Construct includes 5.1 kb nmr-1 genomic promoter sequence upstream of the ATG start codon but a excludes a 2 kb fragment encoding cex-1 that interferes with calcium imaging (Kawano and Zhen, unpublished observation).

Fainter. hp428 is a G to A substitution that alters the 3? splice junction of the first intron resulting in a single base pair deletion in the hp428 cDNA causing a frame-shift and premature stop.

got-1.2(hp731) is C184Y substitution mutation. Reference: Chitturi J, et al. PLoS Genet. 2018 Apr 12;14(4):e1007303. doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1007303. PMID: 29649217.

zxIs127 [sng-1p::SNG-1::CRY2olig(535) + myo-2p::mCherry]. Strain should be kept in the dark; it is very light-sensitive. Pan-neuronal expression of a truncated variant of Arabidopsis thaliana Cryptochrome-2 fused to synaptogyrin. If illuminated with blue light, synaptic vesicles cluster, resulting in inhibition of synaptic transmission. Synaptic transmission is restored within 15 minutes in the absence of light (ca. 6.5min time constant), resulting in normal wild type behavior afterwards. Reference: Vettkotter D, et al. Nat Commun 13, 7827 (2022). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-35324-z. PMID: 36535932
