Both EAT-17 and RAB-6.2 are highly expressed in the pharyngeal muscle. RAB-6-2 is also highly expressed in neurons. EAT-17 expression was also detected in the intestine and vulva.

We confirmed that eat-4 (481 bp sequence located downstream of the translation start site: eat-4p12) (22) and unc-8 (293 bp sequence located ∼197 bp upstream of the translation start site: unc-8Δ7p) were indeed expressed in all six IL1 neurons.

Consistent expression of EAT-4::GFP was observed in many head neurons including AFD, AWC, AIZ, and RIA, which are constituents of the thermotaxis neural circuit.
PVV (P11.paaa) was identified as the only neuron expressing eat-4::GFP beginning in the late L4 stage and continuing throughout adulthood, based on both its position and cell-killing experiments.
