Halo::aPKC endogenously tagged using Cas9-triggered homologous recombination. HaloTag-GLO is a germline-optimized variant coded to be less prone to silencing in the germline. Reference: Dickinson DJ, et al. Dev Cell. 2017 Aug 21;42(4):416-434.e11. (PMID 28829947).

Superficially wild-type. Note that double homozygous mutants of pkc-3(it309) with par-2(it315) exhibited partially penetrant and variable maternal effect lethality and maternal effect sterility that was stronger than it315 alone. Thus, although the GFP tag on pkc-3 shows no effect in an otherwise wild-type background, it does seem to somewhat compromise the activity of the protein it tags. Made in N2 background.

F09E5.1. Heterozygotes are WT with semi-dominant GFP expression in pharynx. Segregates WT GFP, Dpy GFP mIn1 homozygotes and ok544 homozygotes (arrest stage/phenotype undetermined). Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain.

par-2(it315) exhibits a weak maternal effect sterility, suggesting that the tag reduces the protein activity. Note, however, that double homozygous mutants of it315 with pkc-3(it309) or par-6(it310) exhibited partially penetrant and variable maternal effect lethality and maternal effect sterility that was stronger than it315 alone. Thus, although the GFP tags on pkc-3 and par-6 show no effect in an otherwise wild-type background, they do seem to somewhat compromise the activity of the proteins they tag. Made in N2 background.

GFP tag inserted into endgonenous par-2 locus in an analogue-sensitive background. pkc-3(crk77[I331A,T394A]) is a CRISPR-engineered analog-sensitive allele containing both I331A (gatekeeper site) and T394A (suppressor site) mutations, allowing rapid and reversible chemical inhibition of PKC-3 activity. Reference: Ng K, et al. (2022). An analog sensitive allele permits rapid and reversible chemical inhibition of PKC-3 activity in C. elegans.
