pkIs2386 [unc-54p::alphasynuclein::YFP + unc-119(+)]. neIs9 [myo-3::HA::rde-1 + rol-6(su1006)] X. Rollers. YFP expression in the muscles. Derived by crossing parental strains NL5901 and WM118 to produce a Parkinson's model with muscle-only RNAi. Reference: Snow S, et al. (2024). Neuronal CBP-1 is required for enhanced body muscle proteostasis in response to reduced translation downstream of mTOR. Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark.

frSi17 [mtl- 2p::rde-1 3'UTR] II. ldrIs1 [dhs-3p::dhs-3::GFP + unc-76(+)]. RDE-1 activity is rescued in the intestine, making animals RNAi-deficient except for intestinal tissues. Derived by crossing parental strains IG1839 and LIU1. dhs-3::GFP is expressed mainly in intestinal cells and localized to intestinal lipid droplets. frSi17 inserted into ttTi5605 site.

neIs9 [myo-3p::HA::rde-1 + rol-6(su1006)] X. ldrIs1 [dhs-3p::dhs-3::GFP + unc-76(+)]. Rollers. RDE-1 activity is rescued in the body-wall muscle, making animals RNAi-deficient except for body-wall muscle cells. Derived by crossing parental strains WM118 and LIU1. dhs-3::GFP is expressed mainly in intestinal cells and localized to intestinal lipid droplets.

frSi17 [mtl- 2p::rde-1 3'UTR] II. frIs7 [nlp-29p::GFP + col-12p::DsRed] IV. frSi17 inserted into ttTi5605 site using CRISPR/Cas9 engineering. RDE-1 activity is rescued in the intestine, making animals RNAi-deficient except for intestinal tissues. The frSi17 insertion can be detected using a primer within the mtl-2 promoter (jep1061: aacaaacgtgggatgtaacc) in combination with downstream primer in rde-1 (jep2817 tcatactcgtagtattcccg), producing a 786 bp product if insertion is present. rde-1(ne300) can be genotyped by sequencing the PCR product from jep2299: gaacaacgacaatcgagcacca and jep3108: ATcttgtgaccgaactgtcc. (jep3108 is not present in the frSi17 transgene) Reference: Watts JS, et al. G3 (Bethesda) 2020 Nov 5;10(11):4167-4176. PMID: 32943454

frSi21 [col-62p::rde-1 3'UTR] II. frIs7 [nlp-29p::GFP + col-12p::DsRed] IV. frSi21 inserted into ttTi5605 site using CRISPR/Cas9 engineering. RDE-1 activity is rescued in adult epidermal tissues, making animals RNAi-deficient except for hypodermal (skin) tissues from the young adult stage. The frSi21 insertion can be detected using a primer within the col-62 promoter (jep2245: caaaaaggcgggatgagcag) in combination with downstream primer in rde-1 (jep2817 tcatactcgtagtattcccg), producing a 965 bp product if insertion is present. rde-1(ne300) can be genotyped by sequencing the PCR product from jep2299: gaacaacgacaatcgagcacca and jep3108: ATcttgtgaccgaactgtcc (jep3108 is not present in the frSi21 transgene).
