WBPicture0000009632DescriptionFigure 5. Focus of Action of HS-Modifying Enzymes. (A-C) Expression of hse-5, hst-2, and hst-6 reporter gene constructs. Fusions contain all the 5' upstream region to the preceding gene. Expression of hse-5::gfp in comma stage embryos is strong in the hypodermis and intestine and weaker in the head region (A). hst-2::gfp and hst-6::gfp are ubiquitously expressed in late gastrulation (left panel in B and C) and comma stage embryos (middle panel in B and C). Expression levels of hst-2::gfp is stronger in intestinal cells than in surrounding tissue. Expression of all three reporter constructs perdures in a more tissue-restricted manner in late embryos, larval, and adult stages (right panels each). hse-5::gfp expression is primarily seen in the hypodermis (A) and the intestine (not shown; the animal shown for hse-5 exhibits expression exclusively in the hypodermis due to mosaicism). hst-2::gfp shows a wider expression pattern in adults, e.g., in the hypodermis (white arrowheads, hypodermal ridge; black arrowheads, lateral hypodermis) and a restricted set of ventral motorneurons (white arrows) (B), whereas expression for hst-6::gfp is primarily observed in the nervous system (C).(D) Rescue of the PVQ axon crossover phenotype with different expression constructs. The number of extrachromosomal lines for a particular construct that rescue the defect is shown. Promoters are not to scale and comprise 216 nt for dpy-7 and 631 nt for hst-6.a3 out of 6 rescuing lines showed partial rescue (50%-75%) of the defects.b2 out of 3 rescuing lines showed partial rescue (50%-75%) of the defects.
