In larvae and adults, pQC105 reveals mnm-2 promoter activity in the M3 cells of the pharynx, extrapharyngeal neurons in the head, including URX, and the PQR tail neurons.
Expressed in ASE, ASG, ASK, BAG, DD, I5, M3, M5. Faint or variable expression observed in an extra pair of cells in the head. Male specific expression in VSP.
The distal enhancer DE3 activated transcription in the m3, m4, m5, and m7 pharyngeal muscles and also activated occasional expression in the pharyngeal-intestinal valve and body wall muscle cells.
Expression observed only in specific cells during most developmental stages after hatching. The cell identity cannot be fully determined. Some were identified as the pharyngeal muscle cells (m3-m8)
Expressed in AVA, AIY, RIG, RIM, M2. Faint or variable expression observed in M3, two extra pairs of cells in the head. Male specific expression in Rays 2, 6.
