PatternWe detected DMD-9::GFP expression in 10 head neurons of hermaphrodites at the L4 stage. High dmd-9 expression was detected in the BAG, AFD, AWCon, AWCoff, ASEL, and AWB neurons, with lower expression in ASER, and the ASGs. We also observed weak and inconsistent expression in other head neurons and transient weak expression in the tail of hermaphrodites and males at the L4 stage. No overt differences were observed in DMD-9::GFP expression in neurons of hermaphrodites and males. We also detected DMD-9::GFP expression in non-neuronal tissues. Transient DMD-9::GFP expression was observed in the uterine cells at specific sub-stages of the L4 stage. DMD-9 is not expressed from L4.0 to L4.3, with expression first detected in the early L4.4 stage, with the highest level during L4.4. before gradual loss by the L4.9 stage (Mok et al. 2015). DMD-9::GFP was not detected in adult uterine cells. We also detected DMD-9::GFP expression in sperm of hermaphrodites and males. In addition, we found that in a small proportion of L4 animals DMD-9::GFP shows asymmetric expression in the ASEs and AWCs neurons.
