ozEx76 [cdk-4p::CDK-4::GFP + sur-5::DsRed)]. Maintain by picking DsRed+. ozEx76 is unstable; strain exhibits high levels of lethality and sterilty. ~10% of progeny are fertile. Reference: Fox PM, et al. Development. 2011 Jun;138(11):2223-34.

745 bp deletion of cdk-4 from intron I to exon3 removing putative ATP binding domain and catalytic residues. Most homozygous animals arrest at L2 due to absence of most or all postembryonic somatic cell divisions. Some germline proliferation resulting in slightly elongated gonad.
