Exc canal outgrowth abnormal.

Exc canal outgrowth abnormal. PVul. Tail Vab.

Formation of large round cysts in the excretory canal. The cysts begin to form shortly before hatching and is penetrant. The cysts grow in size throughout larval and adult stages, and can be lethal. The cysts form primarily at the cell body. Some of the larger cysts may be visible by low power microscopy. Slight variable defects in the tail whip.

otEx1000 [hsp16-2::exc-4(cDNA)::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Maintain by picking Rollers.

bgIs312 [pes-6::GFP]. GFP expression in excretory cell only.

otEx671[exc-4p::exc-4::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Maintain by picking Rollers. Translational GFP fusion localizes to the lumenal membrane of the excretory cell, to the apical junction of the seam cells, and to the tips of the inner labial and phasmid sheath cells.

bgIs312 [pes-6::GFP]. GFP expression in excretory cell only. otEx718 [exc-4p::exc-4::DsRed2 + rol-6(su1006)]. Maintain by picking Rollers. Roller phenotype most penetrant at 20C.

otEx669 [exc-4p::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Maintain by picking Rollers. Transcriptional GFP fusion expresses in the excretory cell, excretory pore cell, excretory duct cell, rectal gland cell, hypodermis, seam cells, innerlabial sheath cells, and phasmid sheath cells.
