WBPicture0000011715DescriptionFigure 1. (A) unc-1::GFP reporter construct expressed in an N2 adult worm. Note that the reporter is expressed widely in the nervous system, primarily in the circumpharyn- geal nerve ring (small arrow) and in the ventral cord (large arrowhead). No staining is seen in body wall muscle. Note also that the vulval muscles ex- press the construct. The worm appears twisted because the construct is coinjected with a dominant roller gene, rol-6, as a marker for successful injections. (B) The same construct as in A, but expressed in a larval worm. Again, fluorescence is widely expressed in the nervous system. The large arrow- head indicates the ventral nerve cord; the small arrow indicates neurons in the head and pharyngeal nerve ring. (C) Expression of a translational fusion construct containing the unc-1 gene fused to GFP. This construct fully rescued the Unc-1 phenotype. Note the punctate staining along nerve tracts, as noted by the arrowhead. As with the reporter construct, fluorescence was seen primarily in the nerve ring and in the ventral nerve cord, with no fluorescence seen in body wall muscle.
