K957M mutation introduced into the endogenous ogt-1 locus tagged with C-terminal GFP. The K957M mutation ablates the O-GlcNAcylation activity of OGT-1 as measured by the RL2 O-GlcNAc antibody. OGT-1(K957M)::GFP is expressed ubiquitously in somatic tissues with a nuclear localization. Sanger sequence confirmed. Reference: Urso SJ, et al. (2020). The O-GlcNAc transferase OGT is a conserved and essential regulator of the cellular and organismal response to hypertonic stress. bioRxiv, 2020.2005.2001.072033.

Temperature sensitive. Sensitive to alpha-amanitin. Heterozygotes are semi-Dpy and segregate semi-Dpy, Vul, dead embryos, and Dpy. Dpy progeny are maternal effect Emb at 20C and arrest in mid-larval stages at 25C. Reference: Bowman EA, Riddle DR, Kelly WG. G3 November 2011 1:411-416.Reference: Bowman EA, Riddle DR, Kelly WG.
