  Subcellular_localization: GFP expression was first detected in embryos beginning at roughly the 20-cell stage, at the cortex, and throughout the cytoplasm of all embryonic cells. In adults, expressed in contractile filaments in body wall muscle.
  Type: Reporter_gene
  Pattern: In addition to the cytoplasmic expression observed throughout early embryonic cells, prominent GFP expression was also detected in the epidermis during elongation of the round embryo into a long, thin larva. In adult animals, GFP expression was reproducibly observed in body wall muscle cells, incorporated into contractile filaments, and in numerous neurons.

  Remark: Failure to detect maternal expression in earlier stage embryos presumably was due to germline silencing of the extrachromosomal array, which often occurs with transgenes in C. elegans.
