Gene. Due to similarities in the results between using either part of the pezo-1 gene, it seems that RNAi methods targeting both regions of the pezo-1 gene should allow knockdown of the PEZO-1 expression. The third experimental condition that used a 165 xx xxxx-1 insert into an L4440 background vector showed no penetrance of the nonEmo phenotype indicating that no knockdown RNAi was successful in any of the strains. It was more common to see incomplete penetrance of the nonEmo phenotype within one individual worm, seen as either one gonad arm having oocytes with the nonEmo phenotype (Figure 12, for instance) or in some unique cases with fer-1 strain there appeared to be gonad arms with both nonEmo and Emo oocytes present closest to the vulva (Figures 14, 16-20). Figures 15, 18, 20, and 21 show what RNAi knockdown of the pezo-1 transcript looks like when present in both gonad arms. X. X. Xxxxxxx initially noted that nonEmo oocytes produced by pezo-1 mutant strains still transitioned to the Emo phenotype after being laid onto the growth plate. This process is clearly seen in Figures 15, 17, 18, and 21, where the uterus-located oocytes closest to the vulva are nonEmo and show distinctive fluorescent chromosomes while those laid on the growth plate have undergone endomitotic replication. It seems that the laid oocytes furthest from the vulva show the largest amount of DNA replication, suggesting that the transition between the nonEmo to Emo phenotype is, in part, determined by the time an oocyte is outside the animal. This could be due to changes in the environment of the oocyte as it has now exited the gonadal cavity of the hermaphrodite or it could also be linked with an interaction with the vulva muscles as they are squeezed out of the vulva. When looking at the rrf-3 strain, there were fewer worms that showed RNAi knockdown of the pezo-1 gene and so there were fewer gonads with nonEmo oocytes as compared to the other three strains. This is in contrast to what has been published about this strain, where it has been shown to have higher RNAi sensitivity in the gonad than any other strain and greater than wild type RNAi sensitivity in the germline. I observed a low level of response in my feeding-based RNAi experiments for all of the C. elegans strains I examined; a 10-30% penetrance amongst RNAi replica experiments has also been seen by other labs [77]. In conclusion, RNAi bacterial feeding experiments confirmed that RNAi of pezo-1 protein does cause the nonEmo ph...
