umnIs78 [myo-2p::mKate2 + NeoR, I: 12541645 (intergenic)] I. Heterozygous strain. Crossover suppressor for LGI right. Inversion includes unc-75 and unc-54(h1040). Heterozygotes are wild-type (not paralyzed) with dim mKate2 expression in pharynx, and segregate heterozygotes (not paralyzed, dim mKate2), homozygous wild-type (not paralyzed, no mKate2), and hIn1 homozygotes (paralyzed, bright mKate2). Pick non-paralyzed, dim mKate2 worms and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Maintain at 20C or higher: recombined balancer seems more prone to breaking down at low temperatures. Derived by crossing parental strain CGC105 (hIn1[umnIs78]) to RG3173 (Y40B1B.7(ve673[LoxP + myo-2p::GFP::unc-54 3' UTR + rps-27p::neoR::unc-54 3' UTR + LoxP])/hIn1[unc-54(h1040)]) and selecting for the recombined hIn1 worms.

Homozygous sterile. Deletion of 1965 bp with Calarco/Colaiacovo selection cassette conferring myo-2 GFP and G418 resistance inserted at break in parental strain N2. Heterozygotes are wild-type GFP+, and segregate wild-type GFP+, GFP+ sterile adults(ve673 homozygotes) and non-GFP Unc animals (hIn1[unc-54(h1040)] homozygotes). Maintain by picking wild-type GFP+.
