Expression Pattern :

Pattern  To examine whether twk-2 and twk-40 are expressed in same neurons, we generated transgenic animals co-expressing Ptwk-40F::GFP and Ptwk-2::mCherry (Ptwk-2 is a 3.1 kb twk-2 promoter upstream of the start codon). In these animals, we observed co-expression of the reporters in AVA and AVE neurons, unidentified tail neuron(s) at the position of DVA/DVB/DVC and a subset of motor neurons.
