Animals with the duplication are Unc. Animals which have lost the duplication are DpyUnc and arrest at an early larval stage.

kuIs118 [daf-15p::daf-15::mCherry + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. kuIs118 is a single copy insertion into ttTi5605 via CRISPR/Cas9. Superficially wild-type. mCherry expression observed throughout the body. mCherry detected throughout development by western blot with anti-mCherry antibody, with highest expression levels in early larval stages.
