RNAi :

WormBase ID  WBRNAi00110470 Phenotype Remark  "To explore this possibility further, we increased the number of MS-like blastomeres using mex-1 RNAi, which causes a transformation of AB granddaughter blastomeres to an MS-like lineage, in addition to other lineage defects (Mello et al., 1992; Schnabel et al., 1996). As a consequence of the reiteration of the MS lineage there is a large excess (four- to fivefold) of body wall and pharyngeal muscle that can be distinguished from each other using antibodies to MHC A and 3NB12, respectively."
