Strain Genotype Species Description
BN908 unc-119(ed9) III; bqSi908 IV. C. elegans bqSi908 [UAS::FLP::SL2::mNG + unc-119(+)] IV. Strain for inducible co-expression of codon-optimised FLP recombinase and fluorescent mNeonGreen by cGAL (GAL4 optimised for C. elegans). Reference: Ayuso C & Askjaer P. Spatiotemporal control of genome recombination through combined FLP-Frt and GAL4-UAS technologies. microPublication Biology. https://doi.org/10.17912/MICROPUB.BIOLOGY.000089.
BRC546 antIs30 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans antIs30 [attP-f + Cbr-unc-119(+) + glh-2p::phiC31 + rol-6(partial) + myo-2p::GFP + attP-r] II. antIs30 was inserted into ttTi5605 on LG II using MosSCI. GFP expression in pharynx is very weak (as it is single copy) and is easiest to see during the L1-L3 stages. This strain contains a phiC31 docking site and can be used for precise single-copy integration of transgenes via recombination mediated cassette exchange. The docking site contains inverted phiC31-attP sites flanking phiC31 integrase expressed from the glh-2 germline promoter. Integration constructs need to have inverted phiC31-attB sites that flank the intended sequence to be inserted. Reference: Yang FJ, et al. "phiC31 integrase for recombination mediated single copy insertion and genome manipulation in C. elegans." Genetics 2021.
BRC566 antIs31 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans antIs31 [attP-f + Cbr-unc-119(ant40) + glh-2p::phiC31 + rol-6(partial) + myo-2p::GFP + attP-r] II. Unc. antIS31 has been found to self-excise; check for GFP expression periodically to retain the insertion. GFP expression in pharynx is very weak (as it is in single copy) and is easiest to see during the L1-L3 stages. This strain contains a phiC31 docking site and can be used for precise single-copy integration of transgenes via recombination mediated cassette exchange. The docking site contains inverted phiC31-attP sites flanking phiC31 integrase expressed from the glh-2 germline promoter. Integration constructs need to have inverted phiC31-attB sites that flank the intended sequence to be inserted. antIs31 was derived by CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of Cbr-unc-119 in antIs30 creating ant40, a 691 bp deletion in Cbr-unc-119. Because antIs31 does not rescue unc-119(ed3), BRC566 facilitates the use of Unc-119 rescue as a selection marker for transgene insertions. Reference: Yang FJ, et al.

DE112 sup-46(qa710) I; dnSi4 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans dnSi4 [gna-1::GFP::gna-1 3’UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] inserted into ttTi5605 on LG II. Unknown if unc-119(ed9) III is homozygous or heterozygous in this strain.
DE116 dnSi9II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans dnSi9 [sup-46::GFP::sup-46 3’UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] inserted into ttTi5605 on LG II. Strong nuclear-localized GFP expression (expression from dnIs22 is brighter).
EG4322 ttTi5605 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans Unc. Not caused by ttTi5605. Mos1 allele generated by NemaGENETAG consortium (Laurent Segalat). [NOTE: 11/15/11 - This strain contains unc-119(ed9), not unc-119(ed3) as previously reported. (C. Frokjaer-Jensen)] [NOTE: The Dernburg lab has noticed an increased number of rad-51 foci in EG4322 compared to N2. Please use the outcrossed version of this strain (EG6699) instead, which does not have this problem. (C. Frokjaer-Jensen)]
HCC21 hwSi3 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans hwSi3 [pie-1p::GFP::mex-3::pie-1 3'UTR + unc-119(+)] II. Worms are healthiest at 15C. Shift to 25C overnight to increase brightness of GFP. Mos1-mediated single-copy insertion (MosSCI) into EG4322. GFP-tagged transgene expressing full-length MEX-3 uniformly throughout oocytes and early embryos through the 4-cell stage. GFP::MEX-3 then mirrors endogenous MEX-3, disappearing from somatic cells by about the 12-cell stage. Also detected in P granules. GFP::MEX-3 can replace endogenous MEX-3. Reference: Huang NN & Hunter CP. Gene. 2015 Jan 10;554(2):160-73.
HCC27 hwSi8 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans hwSi8 [pie-1p::GFP::mex-3(601-1248)::pie-1 3'UTR + unc-119(+)] II. Worms are healthiest at 15C. Shift to 25C overnight to increase brightness of GFP. Mos1-mediated single-copy insertion (MosSCI) into EG4322. GFP-tagged transgene expressing a portion of MEX-3(601-1248) required for protein degradation. At about the 12-cell stage, soma-germline asymmetry is briefly visible before GFP::MEX-3(601-1248) becomes undetectable even in the germline blastomeres. Detected weakly on P granules only in the presence of endogenous MEX. Reference: Huang NN & Hunter CP. Gene. 2015 Jan 10;554(2):160-73.
HCC31 hwSi13 II; unc-119(ed9) III. C. elegans hwSi13 [pie-1p::GFP::mex-3(2-636)::pie-1 3'UTR + unc-119(+)] II. Worms are healthiest at 15C. Shift to 25C overnight to increase brightness of GFP. Mos1-mediated single-copy insertion (MosSCI) into EG4322. GFP-tagged transgene expressing truncated MEX-3 that is missing a portion required for protein degradation. GFP::MEX-3(2-636) is extraordinarily stable, persisting in somatic cells through the comma stage (~550 cells) at levels similar to those in 1- and 2-cell embryos. Also detected on P granules through hatching. Reference: Huang NN & Hunter CP. Gene. 2015 Jan 10;554(2):160-73.
