PatternPromoter activity was first detected at late gastrulation stage in cells that include descendants of the AB and E lineages. Expression continues through embryonic elongation in some of these cells. About 450 to 520 min after first cleavage, expression was observed in a subset of cells in the head, including one ventral muscle, and in all dorsal body wall muscles. Between 520 min and hatching, green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression was detected in the DA and DB classes of motorneurons, excluding DA8 and DA9. This pattern of expression persisted into the adult stage. In addition, expression was detected in a subset of cells in the head and in pharyngeal neurons and muscle. Of these, only interneuron I4 and muscle m8 were unambiguously identified. In late larval stages, expression was detected in the spermatheca, seam cells, CAN, PDE socket, and four cells that encircle the vulva.

RemarkAmong cells that express unc-129 promoter activity, only DA and DB motorneurons display morphological or axon guidance defects.
