Strains carrying this transgene

Strain Genotype Species Description
JPS575 slo-1(js379) V; vsIs48; vxEx326. C. elegans vsIs48 [unc-17::GFP]. GFP expressed in all cholinergic neurons. vxEx326 [slo-1p::hslo(T352I)::mCherry::unc-54 3'UTR + myo-2p::mCherry]. Pick animals with mCherry expression in the pharynx to maintain the array. vxEx326 rescues ethanol-independent phenotypes of a slo-1(null) mutants without rescuing ethanol intoxication. vxEx326 expresses human BK channel protein (hslo(T352I)) with a C-terminal mCherry tag.
