The Fire Lab
C. Elegans Vector Kit is now available for distribution to scientists
at academic and non-profit institutions through Addgene. This kit
contains 288 vectors lacZ and/or GFP fusion vectors for studying gene
expression, control plasmids for RNA-mediated interference, vectors
for bacterial-mediated RNAi, and much more. Addgene is a new not-for-profit
research support service dedicated to archiving and distributing
plasmids from published articles. More information on the
kit is available on the AddGene site.

Agilent has released a new C. elegans 22K oligo microarray with
sequences from WS129. Additional information is available on the product
page at Agilent’s website.

The Genome Sequencing Center at Washington University has funding from
NHGRI and HHMI to produce and distribute microarrays for use by
C. elegans investigators. The arrays contain 60 mers designed
to represent 20,966 C. elegans genes from WormBase release WS93
and are available for $90 (US). Additional information, inlcuding
order forms, is available online.
