We identified NPR-6-expressing neurons using a
pnpr-6::GFP promotor fusion: this was found in pharyngeal neurons (M1 to M5, MC, I1, I2, I4 to I6, NSM [expression in NSM was previously shown by mRNA profiling; Spencer et al., 2014]); sensory neurons (ADL, ASH, ASI, ASJ, ASK, AWB, BAG, URAD, URYD); head motoneurons (SMBD, SMBV); AIM, ALA, RIF, CANL cells; and tail neurons (PVT, PVP).
pnpr-6::GFP was also expressed in cholinergic VC motoneurons, innervating ventral body and vulval muscles.
