DG4222 C. elegans pos-1(tn1730[gfp::3xflag::pos-1]) V. Show Description
Superficially wild type
WRM101 C. elegans pos-1(spr28[(gfp::tev::3xFlag::pos-1::(delta)3' UTR *tn1730]) V. Show Description
spr28 is a 239-nucleotide deletion (bp 45-285) and insertion of a jump board gRNA sequence (Duan et al. 2020) within the 3' UTR of the endogenously-tagged pos-1 locus. GFP::POS-1 protein expression is mis-regulated causing overexpression throughout the gonad where it is not normally expressed. A large portion of progeny fail to properly develop a germline. Other phenotypes include reduced brood size, reduced hatch rate, hermaphrodites developing only one gonad arm, oogenesis defects, and multi-vulva. Temperature stress of 25C increases severity of phenotypes. Generated in DG4222 background that was 3x outcrossed. Reference: Varderesian HV, et al. PLoS Genet. 2026 Apr 27;22(4):e1012129. doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1012129. PMID: 42044121.
WRM104 C. elegans pgl-1(spr20[mCherry::pgl-1]) IV; pos-1(spr28[(gfp::tev::3xFlag::pos-1::(delta)3' UTR *tn1730]) V. Show Description
mCherry tag inserted at N-terminus of endogenous pgl-1 locus. mCherry fluorescence in P-granules throughout embryogenesis and larval morphogenesis. spr28 is a 239-nucleotide deletion (bp 45-285) and insertion of a jump board gRNA sequence (Duan et al. 2020) within the 3' UTR of the endogenously-tagged pos-1 locus. GFP::POS-1 protein expression is mis-regulated causing overexpression throughout the gonad where it is not normally expressed. A large portion of progeny fail to properly develop a germline. Other phenotypes include reduced brood size, reduced hatch rate, hermaphrodites developing only one gonad arm, oogenesis defects, and multi-vulva. Temperature stress of 25C increases severity of phenotypes. Derived by crossing WRM101 males with WRM85 hermaphrodites. Reference: Varderesian HV, et al.

WRM105 C. elegans pgl-1(spr20[mCherry::pgl-1]) IV; pos-1(tn1730[gfp::3xflag::pos-1]) V. Show Description
mCherry tag inserted at N-terminus of endogenous pgl-1 locus. mCherry fluorescence in P-granules throughout embryogenesis and larval morphogenesis. GFP::POS-1 expression in embryos. Derived by crossing WRM85 males with DG4222 hermaphrodites that had been 3x outcrossed. A small portion of homozygotes fail to properly develop germline. Reference: Varderesian HV, et al. PLoS Genet. 2026 Apr 27;22(4):e1012129. doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1012129. PMID: 42044121.
