WBPicture0000010633DescriptionFig. 2. Tissue specific expression of the A2-promoter/gfp construct in larva. The 1509 nt long 5'-upstream region of the A2 gene (Fig. 1B) was used in the promoter/gfp reporter. Only F2 generation animals were photographed. Due to the toxicity of the transgene it was not possible to propagate extrachromosomal arrays any further. Nomarski phase contrast monitoring (A) was used to facilitate the identification of cells and tissues. Expression of GFP in larva was detected in the main body hypodermis excluding the seam cells marked by arrows. These appear as dark gaps on the green GFP fluorescence of the hypodermal syncytium (B). Note the weak fluorescence in the ventral nerve cord and the intense GFP fluorescence of unidentified structures in the tail. Bar 25 um.
