Interaction_summary | The sister of the PVDR cell will express mec-3-lacZ response to jeEx100 (unc-86+++). At a low frequency (3%), an extra mec-3-expressing cell adjacent to PVDR is seen in a ced(+) ; jeEx100 strain. When this occurs, there are five neuronal nuclei in the PVDR cluster, suggesting a transformation into a mec-3-expressing cell of the PVDR sister, which normally undergoes programmed cell death. When cell death is blocked with a ced-4(n1162) mutation, the frequency of ectopic mec-3-LacZ cells increases to 41%, indicating that in the presence of a high unc-86 gene dose, the PVDR sister can often express mec-3-LacZ if it does not first undergo programmed cell death . | ||||
