PatternWith the expression of GFP::his-58 under the control of the putative endogenous timp-1 5'-cis regulatory region, we found green fluorescence in different types of cells, i.e., epidermal cells, seam cells (lateral epidermal cells), lateral region vulval cells, and a subpopulation of head neurons, which suggested that timp-1 had been transcribed in these cells; conversely, green fluorescence was not detected in muscle cells. We confirmed that the timp-1 promoter was inactive in muscle cells by showing that GFP::HIS-58 under the control of the timp-1 promoter was not co-expressed with the mCherry muscle marker oxIs322[myo-3p::mCherry::H2B]. Although TIMP-1::Venus was detected on the gonadal basement and plasma membrane of the germ cells, GFP::HIS-58 under the control of the timp-1 promoter was not detected in gonadal somatic cells or in germ cells.
