CF4639 C. elegans glh-1(sam140[glh-1::T2A::wrmScarlet(1-10)]) I; fib-1(mu498[wrmScarlet11::fib-1]) V. Show Description
fib-1(mu498[wrmScarlet11::fib-1]) generated via CRISPR/Cas9 insertion into parental strain DUP237; transgene contains a linker between wrmScarlet11 and fib-1. Endogenous fib-1 detectable in the germline. T2A::wrmScarlet(1-10) fused to the C-terminus of endogenous GLH-1. The T2A self-cleaving peptide separates wrmScarlet(1-10) from GLH-1 post-translationally so that wrmScarlet(1-10) disperses throughout germ cell nuclei and cytoplasm. wrmScarlet(1-10) is also maternally loaded into embryos, where it persists through early and mid-embryonic development.

CFJ302 C. elegans unc-119(kst33) III. Show Description
Maintain at 15C. Temperature-sensitive unc-119 allele. Wild-type at 15C, intermediate Unc and Egl at 20C, and fully penetrant Unc and Egl at 25C. For use in transgenesis, maintain the strain at lower temperatures for increased brood size and easier injection, then transfer animals to 25C to select for transgenic animals based on Unc rescue. Molecular characterization shows a complex allele with a 210 bp duplication from a nearby exon-intron junction, which introduces 12 amino acids and a putative splice donor at a consensus splice acceptor site. The phenotype is most likely caused by temperature-sensitive splicing defects based on RT-PCR. Reference: Aljohani M, et al.

CGC1 C. elegans C. elegans wild isolate. Show Description
CGC1 (formerly known as PD1074) is intended to be used as a wild-type reference strain with the closely matched genome assembly of Yoshimura, et al. (Genome Res. 2019 Jun;29(6):1009-1022) available on Wormbase as VC2010-1.0. (ENA study accession PRJEB28388; assembly accession GCA_900538205). CGC1 is a defined and recently cloned population of animals derived from the original "Bristol" variant of C. elegans originally obtained by Brenner from E. Dougherty with no known history of mutagenesis. Brenner's original population, called N2, was used as the basis for the vast majority of laboratory strains in use currently. No early frozen stock of the unmutagenized N2 population currently exists, but later stocks were available from several laboratories. CGC1 is a clonal population founded by picking a single worm of one such stock, VC3510. VC3510 in turn derives from a subpopulation of N2 described in the literature as VC2010. We note that CGC1 is expected to be largely similar to most lab N2 strains, but that as a clonal isolate derived from N2, there will be some loci that will vary compared to any other particular N2 isolate. One such example is a partial deletion of the alh-2 locus in CGC1. Additional loci that were found to vary between the prior N2 reference genome (WormBase release WS264) and the VC2010-1.0 assembly are detailed in supplemental table 8 in Yoshimura, et al, (2019).

CL4176 C. elegans smg-1(cc546) I; dvIs27 X. Show Description
dvIs27 [myo-3p::A-Beta (1-42)::let-851 3'UTR) + rol-6(su1006)] X. Rollers. Temperature sensitive: needs to be propagated at 15C. Upshift larval animals to check that the worms get paralyzed and give offspring that arrest as eggs/early larvae. This strain produces low levels of beta amyloid peptide even when grown at low temperature, and therefore there is always some selection for loss of transgene copies. It is recommended to maintain growing stock plates at 15-16 degrees C by transferring small numbers of animals each generation rather than by "chunking", which increases the effective population size and therefore the chance of a relatively rare transgene loss, and then this revertant taking over the population. The strain should also be frozen shortly after being received. This strain can only be sent to academic users and not to commercial organizations.

CX5000 C. elegans slt-1(eh15) X. Show Description
slt-1 mutants have no dissecting-scope phenotype. They have a 40% penetrant defect in the ventral guidance of the AVM neuron scored with mec-4::GFP, a mild defect in CAN cell migration that is enhanced by a ceh-23::GFP transgene, and a mild defect in midline crossing by PVQ neurons scorable with sra-6::GFP. slt-1(eh15) is a complex rearrangement that duplicates the endogenous slt-1 gene, but disrupts both duplicated copies. The two copies are linked on X but the exact distance between them is not known. The duplication probably extends >13 kb based on Southern blotting. Deletion breakpoints for the first copy of slt-1 are as follows: nucleotides 26219 to 28163 and 28197 to 28294 in cosmid C26G2 are deleted. The second copy of slt-1 contains the following structure: nucleotides 28197 to 28294 in C26G2 are deleted, followed by a duplication of nucleotides 28300 to 28396 in C26G2 that begins 5 nucleotides after the deletion. Both copies of slt-1 are mutant, as confirmed by both DNA sequence and RT-PCR analysis of slt-1 mRNA. Scoring for homozygosity of the slt-1 allele by PCR is difficult because of the two copies of the gene and because the small deletion and the small duplication of the second copy of slt-1 are the same size. The mutant can be followed indirectly by X linkage (very closely linked to unc-3). It may be possible to make a specific primer within the duplicated region that detects a unique band in the slt-1 mutant.

DA1877 Comamonas sp. Comamonas sp. Show Description
Bacteria. Comamonas sp., a bacterium on which C. elegans grows particularly well. Str-R. DA1877 is derived from a bacterium isolated from soil in the Dallas area by Boris Shtonda in 2002. That strain was called H39 in Avery, L, Shtonda, BB (2003), "Food transport in the C elegans pharynx", J Exp Biol 206: 2441-2457. It was identified as genus Comamonas by 16S rDNA sequencing, as described in the paper. L. Avery isolated a spontaneous streptomycin-resistant variant by selecting for growth in LB broth + 200 ug/ml streptomycin sulfate. This strain, when spread on NGMSR plates, gave rise to faster-growing papillae; one of these was streaked out to get DA1877. Biosafety Level: BSL-1.
