    Expr16038 We detected embryonic expression of our rescuing pal-1::gfp construct, containing the full genomic sequence of pal-1, in two pairs of epidermal daughter cells, V3 and P7/8, and V4 and V6, from shortly after their birth. In contrast, we were unable to detect any expression of pal-1 in L1 larvae, supporting the hypothesis that pal-1 functions in embryos to coordinate L1 ventral epithelial morphogenesis.

Definition Name Synonym Primary Identifier
Blast cell lying ventrolaterally in the late embryo and L1 larval stage which divides during the late L1 larva in stereotypical reiterated fashion to give rise to many motor neurons which begin function in the ventral cord and preanal ganglion of the early L2 larva, as well as hypodermal cells (which fuse into hyp7) and a series of programmed cell deaths. In addition, the Pn.p daughters of P3 through P8 lineages persist without fusing into the hyp7 syncytium until mid L3 stage when they can be induced to divide further to produce vulval epithelial cells (vulA - vulF) or more hyp7 cells. P0 is also known as W. ventral cord blast cell P cell WBbt:0008115
