TypeReporter_gene[wrk-1::TM-gfp] translational fusion. wrk-1 expression was determined by means of a reporter construct (wrk1::TM::gfp), in which 4 kb of sequences upstream of the ATG start codon, all exons, and the first three introns of the wrk-1 locus were fused in frame to gfp. This construct is able to rescue the phenotype of wrk-1 mutant animals. See Transgene otEx2389.
[wrk-1::gfp] transcriptional fusion in which 4 kb of sequences upstream of the ATG start codon was fused to GFP. See Transgene otEx203
[wrk-1::gfp] translational fusion. See Transgene otEx2522.
PatternThe wrk-1 gene is expressed in ventral midline cells, namely in the eMNs. Additional expression is observed in a subset of head neurons, including interneurons (AIY class), sensory neurons (ASI class), and head motoneurons (SMDV/D class), and glial-type sheath and socket cells. Outside the nervous system, the most prominent sites of wrk-1 expression include the intestine, excretory gland cell, distal tip cell, and coelomocytes.
