Utah natural isolate carrying peel-1(qq99) I. EG4348 was collected by M. Ailion from Salt Lake City, UT. qq99 designates the naturally occurring nonsense mutation in peel-1.

qqIr7 [peel-1(qq99)] I. oxSi78 [peel-1p::peel-1 (introns included)::GFP::peel-1 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. Genetic background is a mixture of N2 and wild isolate EG4348. The oxSi78 insertion produces a PEEL-1::GFP translational fusion. PEEL-1::GFP is expressed in the spermatogenic germline and packaged into sperm. PEEL-1::GFP appears to localize to fibrous body-membranous organelles. PEEL-1::GFP does not rescue peel-1(qq99). Reference: Seidel HS, et al. PLoS Biol. 2011 Jul;9(7):e1001115.
