(A to F) TAX-6::GFP was expressed in neurons (open arrows) and in the cytoplasm (solid arrows) and nucleus (arrowheads) of intestinal cells. tax-6(p675); Ex[pAK13] animals were imaged at magnifications 100 [(A) to (C)] and 400 [(D) to (F)]. DIC, differential interference contrast. (G) Expression of TAX-6::GFP in the intestine of animals treated with control, daf-2, or tax-6 RNAi. The intensity of cytoplasmic and nuclear TAX-6::GFP in the intestine was scored separately. Percentages of worms expressing strong (+++), intermediate (++), weak (+), very weak (+/-), or background (-) TAX-6::GFP in the intestine were averaged from three experiments (n > 39 animals in each experiment). (H) Effects of the tax-6(p675) mutation on dauer formation and a synthetic effect with daf-2 RNAi. WT ('1' and '2'), daf-16 (mu86) ('3' and '4'), and tax-6(p675) ('5' and '6') animals were treated with daf-2 ('2,''4,' and '6') or control RNAi ('1,''3,' and '5') at 27C (black, one experiment) or 25C (gray, average of two experiments) (n &amp;gt; 120 animals in each experiment). (I) daf-16(mu86) suppressed tax-6(p675) dauer formation (average of two experiments, n &amp;gt; 300 animals per experiment). (J) daf-16(mu86) suppressed the long life span of tax-6(p675) mutant animals (one experiment, n > 80 animals, P &amp;lt; 0.01, log-rank test). (K) cnb-1 mutants displayed an extended life span (one experiment, n > 80 animals, P < 0.01, log-rank test).
