Figure 4. Light microscopic images of transgenic C. elegans carrying
gly-12::lacZ,
gly-13::lacZ, and
gly-14::lacZ reporter constructs. A-C, expression of
gly-12 reporter in late embryo (A), L2 larva (B), and L3 larva (C). D-F, expression of
gly-13 reporter in L1 larva (D), L4 larva (E), and adult hermaphrodite (F).G shows the expression of
gly-14 reporter in an L4 hermaphrodite. hyp, hypodermal cell; mus, muscle cell; int, intestinal cell; gan, ganglia; vul, vulval cell; vnc, ventral nerve cord. Worms are oriented with anterior to the left and dorsal up except for the worms in C, which is a ventral view, and G, which is a dorsal view. Animals in D-F are displayed at 0.5 times the magnification shown in the other panels.
