Consistent with previous findings (Kim and Li, 2004), we found that flp-20 is expressed in the TRNs (ALM, AVM, PLM, PVM), along with a few other neurons (ASE, LUA, and PVC).
sem-4 is expressed in all rectal cells in L1s hermaphrodites (i.e., Y, U, B, F, K, and K') and in all rectal cells, including P12.pa, in L3 or older worms.
We confirmed the expression of this construct in F and U, but detected expression at lower frequency and level in other hindgut cells in hermaphrodites grown at 20C. Expression is also observed in K and K'. In wild type, cdh-3::gfp expression is never observed in Y. In contrast, the B cell expresses cdh-3::gfp at low levels in wild type.
Pdaf-6GFP was expressed in the amphid sheath glia. Expression was also seen in amphid socket cells, the phasmid sensory organ sheath and socket cells, cells of the excretory system (the excretory canal, duct, pore, and gland cells), the vulval E and F cells, the K, K', F, and U rectal epithelial cells, and less frequently in posterior intestinal cells.
