Antibody stained the same nuclei lit by the scm::gfp seam-cell-specific marker at L1 and later stages. A weaker signal was observed in the nuclei of
hyp7 cells produced by the first asymmetric division of the V cells. A transgenic
nhr-25::gfp construct confirmed that
nhr-25 was expressed in the seam cells from L1 until adulthood; consistent with the antibody staining, this construct was less active in the
hyp7 daughters.
