PatternIn mosaic animals, GFP was detected in almost all tissues, including neurons and muscle cells. Transgenes driving GFP expression under the control of the 263-bp promoter sequence used for emc-6 rescue experiments induced lethality and did not transmit GFP expression after one generation. To bypass this technical issue, the authors characterized the expression pattern of the Caenorhabditis briggsae ortholog of emc-6 (Cb-emc-6) in C. elegans. Interestingly, transgenic expression of Cb-emc- 6 was nontoxic in C. elegans. GFP expression was observed in every tissue from the threefold stage to adulthood. Altogether, these results suggest that emc-6 is ubiquitously expressed.
