BK587 C. elegans exc-9(qpIs124[gfp::3xFlag::exc-9]) IV; ifa-4(ok1717) X. Show Description
GFP::3xFlag tag inserted at N-terminus of endogenous exc-9 locus. Large cysts in excretory canal, sometimes visible with dissecting microscope, due to loss of intermediate filament IFA-4. Canals labeled with GFP and 3xFlag. GFP::3xFlag tag was inserted with repair of qp130 deletion in parental strain BK596. Derived by crossing parental strains BK583 x VC1221 and selecting for canal cysts and fluorescence. Reference: Yang Z, et al. J Cell Biol. 2020 Nov 2;219(11):e202003152. doi: 10.1083/jcb.202003152.
