Expression Pattern :

Pattern  We found that animals expressing the Pmir-234::gfp transgene exhibit GFP fluorescence in a subset of neurons, evident from late embryogenesis throughout larval development and in adults. To identify the specific neurons expressing Pmir-234::gfp, we performed co-localization studies using a combination of DiI staining and crosses into strains expressing RFP in known neuronal subtypes (Tong and Burglin, 2010). Using this strategy, we unambiguously identified 13 neurons expressing Pmir-234::gfp, including multiple neuron classes: sensory neurons (ADL, ASG, ALM, AVM, PHA, PVM), interneurons (AIM, PVQ, PVT, RID), motorneuron(HSN)and pharyngeal neurons (I4 and I6).

Remark Definition Other Name Public Name Primary Identifier
  The stage that begins when a C.elegans individual is fully-developed and has reached maturity. adult Ce WBls:0000041
  The C. elegans life stage spanning 620-800min(hatch) after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. A stage after elongation is over. The last stage of embryogenesis. Also called pre-hatched embryo, late embryo or morphogenetic embryo. fully-elongated embryo Ce WBls:0000021
  A developmental life stage of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans that occurs from egg hatching until adulthood. larva Ce WBls:0000023
  The C. elegans life stage spanning 520-620min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo is elongated and tripple fold. A stage between 2-fold embryo and fully-elongated embryo. Also called pretzel embryo or pretzel stage. 3-fold embryo Ce WBls:0000020
