In the embryo, the upstream promoter (ten-1a) is most active in the descendants of the C and EMS blastomers. During postembryonic development, GFP expression was detected in the pharynx, gut, coelomocytes, posterior body wall muscles, vulva muscles in hermaphrodites, and diagonal muscles in males. The ten-1a promoter is also active in some hypodermal cells including the hyp-11 cell, hypodermal seam cells, and rectal hypodermis. In the somatic gonad, it is active throughout its development starting with z1 and z4 cells in the embryo. During gonad development, it is expressed in the distal tip cells and the linker cell in males, in gonad and spermatheca sheath cells, and the utse cells of the uterus. In males, ten-1a is active in the vas deferens and spicule socket cells. Furthermore, GFP expression in DVB neurons and a few ring interneurons could be detected. |

Expression was found in the excretory canal cell, tail spike, uterine seam cell, distal tip cells, intestine, ALM and PLN neurons, and nerve ring. For male worms, although ray development is affected, no GFP was detected in the mature rays, although GFP is weakly expressed in the tail spike in larval stages. |

In hermaphrodites, this reporter was expressed soon after the hDTC was born and expression persisted throughout the life of the hDTC. In males, hlh-2::GFP expression was not seen in the SGPs (Z1/Z4), but it was expressed in mDTCs after the first SGP division. Moreover, expression persisted throughout development and in adults. Therefore, hlh-2 expression is likely not sexually dimorphic. |

Excepting body wall muscles and gonadal leaders, described below, no other cells were observed to express SP-GFP-hemicentin. Body wall muscles: Beginning in late embryogenesis (approx. 500 minutes), and continuing through adulthood, hemicentin is synthesized by lateral body wall muscle cells along the entire length of the animal, excepting cells six and eight near the nerve ring. Medial body wall muscle cells express little if any hemicentin. Gonadal leaders (hermaphrodite): Beginning soon after their genesis in late L1 stage, hermaphrodite distal-tip cells express hemicentin continuously throughout development. The anchor cell, or proximal leader, expresses hemicentin beginning in early L3 stage soon after cell commitment. SP-GFP-hemicentin diffuses throughout the utse syncytium at this time, but it is not known whether him-4 is transcribed in nuclei other than the anchor. In the adult, all expression within the utse syncytium ceases. Gonadal leaders (male): In the male, distal-tip cells never express hemicentin. The linker cell, or proximal leader, expresses hemicentin beginning at early L2 stage. |

Both transgenes qIs56 and qIs19 have similar GFP expression in the DTC, but qIs56 has brighter GFP expression in the ventral nerve cord than qIs19. The wild-type male linker cell expresses lag-2::GFP intensely. |
