mes-4 : pos-1

mes-4(bn23) suppresses the embryonic lethality of pos-1 RNAi. The authors suggest that this is due to disabling of the RNAi machinery by the mes-4(bn23) loss-of-function mutant. Note: the mes-4 loss of function cannot suppress the embryonic lethality of pos-1 RNAi when low concentrations (<= 50ng/ul) of pos-1 dsRNA are injected

mes-4 : pos-1

mes-4(bn23) suppresses the embryonic lethality of pos-1 RNAi. The authors suggest that this is due to disabling of the RNAi machinery by the mes-4(bn23) loss-of-function mutant. Note: the mes-4 loss of function cannot suppress the embryonic lethality of pos-1 RNAi when worms are soaked in low concentrations (~100ng/ul) of pos-1 dsRNA

mes-3 : pos-1

mes-3(bn35) suppresses the embryonic lethality of pos-1 RNAi. The authors suggest that this is due to disabling of the RNAi machinery by the mes-3(bn35) loss-of-function mutant. Note that the mes-3 loss of function cannot suppress the embryonic lethality of pos-1 RNAi when low concentrations (<= 50ng/ul) of pos-1 dsRNA are injected

egl-17 : lin-48

"We first examined the expression pattern of the socket marker egl-17::GFP in lin-48 (sy548) mutant animals. Ectopic marker-expressing cells are observed in the preanal region (Fig. 4B). Ablation of the left/right pair of Ul/r cells in the early L3 stage is able to eliminate the ectopic marker-expressing cells and the ectopically formed spicule structure (n55)."
