asEx83 [spe-19(+) + myo-3p::GFP]. Pick GFP+ to maintain. asEx83 contains 7.3kb genomic fragment including spe-19 (Y113G7A.10) and 850bp of upstream sequence. Transgene rescues spe-19(eb52) sperm activation defect. GFP+ hermaphrodites are fertile. non-GFP hermaphrodites are sterile. All males are fertile.

Y113G7A.10. Apparent homozygous lethal deletion chromosome balanced by flanking markers. Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Unc-51 Rol-9 homozygotes and ok3428 homozygotes (arrest stage/phenotype undetermined). Pick WT and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. External left primer: CAAAACGTCCAAAGTGTCCC. External right primer: AGTGATTCCCAGATGTCCCA. Internal left primer: TCTCCGAAATGTCCCAGAAA. Internal right primer: CGAAAAATTCGGAAAAATCG. Internal WT amplicon: 1373 bp. Deletion size: 810 bp. Deletion left flank: ACGTCATCCTCCTGAGTTTTTTCGACTTTC. Deletion right flank: TTAAGCCTATTGAAAAGCTCTGAATTGTCC.
