Interaction_summaryC183::gfp (myo-2 enhancer) reporter exhibited strong GFP expression in the pharynx from mid- embryogenesis through adulthood. However, the level, pattern and timing of GFP expression in cuIs2; daf-3(mg90) was indistinguishable from that in +/+; cuIs2 throughout development. The strong reduction in GFP expression observed in daf-4(m72) single mutants was largely suppressed in the daf-4(m72); daf-3(mg90) double mutant. As adults, 84% of daf-4(m72); daf- 3(mg90) animals bearing cuIs2 exhibited much stronger GFP expression than daf-4 single mutants. Thus the reduction of C183 enhancer activity observed in daf-4(m72) requires wild-type daf-3. Taken together the results indicate that daf-3 is a repressor of C183 enhancer activity and, as with its dauer-promoting activity, daf-3's transcriptional repressor activity is negatively regulated by daf-4.
