hmIs4 [des-2::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers. Translational GFP fusion expressed on the membranes of PVD dendrites but not in the axon. Also expressed in m1 head muscles, IL2 neurons, FLP neurons and PVC neurons. Reference: Oren-Suissa M, et al. Science. 2010 Jun 4;328(5983):1285-8.

hmIs4 [des-2::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Dpy Rollers. eff-1(ok1021) was outcrossed 6 times. PVD neurons are hyperbranched and have disorganized menorah structures. Shows reduced sensitivity to strong mechanical stimuli. eff-1(ok1021) is a null allele and has strong arborization and cell fusion defects. Pick rollers to maintain. Reference: Oren-Suissa M, et al. Science. 2010 Jun 4;328(5983):1285-8.

hmIs4 [des-2::GFP + rol-6(su1006)]. Rollers. Temperature sensitive. PVD neurons are hyperbranched and have disorganized menorah structures. eff-1 worms are also cell fusion-defective at 25 C. Cell fusion and arborization defects are less penetrant at 15 C. Grow at 15 C to maintain. Pick rollers to maintain. Reference: Oren-Suissa M, et al. Science. 2010 Jun 4;328(5983):1285-8.
