4 Expression Patterns

Remark Reporter Gene Primary Identifier Pattern Subcellular Localization
    Expr15433    
    Expr11002 pdf-1 was expressed in both sexes in the head interneurons SAAV, SAAD, SIAV, AVB, AIM, RMG and two other unidentified ciliated neurons (possibly ASK and AFD). In the tail, pdf-1 was consistently expressed in interneurons PVN, LUA, PVT, and the pair PVS and PVU (referred to as PVP left and right in the hermaphrodite). Expression was also observed in male­-specific neurons (ventral cord neurons CP7 and CP8, and PDC) and in one unidentified interneuron, possibly PVX, in the pre­-anal ganglion.  
    Expr13235 In both males and hermaphrodites, bnc-1 is almost exclusively expressed in VA and VB motorneurons. Weaker expression is also observed in the SABV neuron pair. The protein localizes exclusively to nuclei. bnc-1 expression is initiated around the postembryonic birth of VA and VB MNs at the late first larval (L1) stage and is maintained throughout the life of the animals. A similar expression pattern is observed with successively smaller reporter gene constructs: (1) a fosmid reporter in which bnc-1 is tagged at the C terminus, (2) the aforementioned rescue construct that contains sequences 1.8 kb upstream of the start codon all the way to the stop codon, or (3) a promoter fusion construct that only contains the sequence 1.8 kb upstream of the start codon. Besides VA/VB MNs, bnc-1 is also expressed in the male-specific CP7 MN and CP8 interneuron in the VNC. The protein localizes exclusively to nuclei.
    Expr13479 Onset of expression: VA1-VA12, VB2- VB11, SABVL/R: late L1.
