Strain Genotype Species Description
JPS344 slo-1(js379)V; vxEx344. C. elegans vxEx344 [slo-1p::slo-1(+)::mCherry::unc-54 3'UTR + myo-2p::mCherry]. Pick animals with mCherry expression in the pharynx to maintain the array. vxEx344 rescues ethanol-independent and ethanol intoxication phenotypes of a slo-1(null) mutants. vxEx344 expresses worm BK channel protein (slo-1(+)) with a C-terminal mCherry tag.
