WormBase ID | WBStrain00040705 | CGC Received | 2013-04-29 |
Genotype | mrt-1(e2662) I. | Laboratory | CGC |
Made By | WBPerson7 | Name | YA893 |
Outcrossed | x4 | Remark | Null allele. Mortal germline. Progressive telomere shortening due to telomerase dysfunction. Hypersensitive to DNA interstrand crosslinking agents. This strain will becomce sterile after propagating 10-20 generations. mrt-1 mutants can be rejuvenated by outcrossing. Reference: Meier B, et al. EMBO J. 2009 Nov 18;28(22):3549-63. [NOTE: allele is incorrectly described as e2661 in this publication.] |
