he278 is a CRISPR-induced deletion of ebp-2. he279 is a deletion removing ebp-1, Y59A8B.25 & ebp-3. Low penetrance of pleiotropic phenotypes among adults, including low frequency of dumpy, sterile and/or uncoordinated animals and nonviable larvae that explode through the vulva. Some adults develop irregularities that seem to represent epidermal bulges. Reference: Schmidt et al., J Cell Biol. 2017 Sep 4; 216(9): 2777–2793. doi: 10.1083/jcb.201607038

GFP and 3xFLAG tags inserted into endogenous ebp-2 locus. No overt phenotypes. GFP fluorescence is observed the tips of growing microtubules. Reference: Sallee M, et al. PLoS Biol. 2018 Aug 6;16(8):e2005189. doi: 10.1371/journal.pbio.2005189. PMID: 30080857.

abcIs3 [pie-1p::ebp-2::GFP + unc-119(+)]. Superficially wild-type. Maternal expression of EBP-2::GFP microtubule end-binding protein. In early embryos, EBP-2 encodes an EB1-like protein (end-binding) that locates to the growing tips of microtubules (not detected on depolymerizing microtubules). A strong fluorescent signal localizes to the centrosome due to high concentration of polymerizing microtubule ends. References: Gusnowski EM, Srayko M. J Cell Biol. 2011 Aug 8;194(3):377-86. Tegha-Dunghu J, et al. Methods Mol Biol. 2014;1136:103-16.

abcIs3 [pie-1p::ebp-2::GFP + unc-119(+)]. Embryonic-lethal at 25ºC due to dominant gain-of-function mutation mei-1(ct46), and Uncoordinated due to unc-13 mutation. Maternal expression of EBP-2::GFP microtubule end-binding protein. EBP-2 encodes an EB1-like protein (end-binding) that, in early embryos, locates to the growing tips of microtubules. A strong fluorescent signal localizes to the centrosomes of early embryos due to a high concentration of polymerizing microtubules. mei-1(ct46)-based ectopic microtubule severing causes mitotic spindle defects in the early embryo.
