Expression of ceh-34::gfp transgene began during embryogenesis. CEH-34::GFP was localized to the nuclei of expressing cells. During embryonic morphogenesis and larval development and throughout adulthood, expression of the ceh-34::gfp transgene was seen predominantly in pharyngeal cells. The ceh-34::gfp transgene was expressed in all pharyngeal neurons (M4, I1, MI, I3, M3, NSM, MC, I2, I4, I5, I6, M1, M2, and M5), some pharyngeal muscle cells (pm1 and pm2) and pharyngeal epithelial cells (e1 and e3), and some body wall muscles around the anterior pharynx. |

This Expr_pattern is about CeTMIV, an isoform of tmy-1 transcription. To confirm the CeTMIV isoform expression pattern, corresponding tmy-1::gfp vectors were assayed. Similar GFP expressions induced in pharynx and intestines respectively. These results show that the CeTMIV isoform was expressed in the pharyngeal muscles and intestinal cells and establish that the primary promoter region was located within 853 bp upstream of the initial ATG. pretzel stage (author) = fully-elongated embryo (wjc). |

The constructs pTMZIV4349 and pTMZIV1957 induced beta-galactosidase expressions in both the pharyngeal muscles and intestinal cells with similar intensities. Specifically, pharyngeal expressions were observed in all the eight muscle cells (m1-m8), one marginal cell (mc), one epithelial cell (e1) and the four cells of the pharyngo-intestinal valve (PIV). The 20 intestinal cells, some of which are binucleated and localized alongside the intestine, posterior of pharynx and anterior of anus were all stained with intense staining occurring at the most posterior end. Intestinal staining was limited only to intestinal cells, although there were slight variations in position of nuclei and staining intensity. Expression was also detected in embryos between gastrulation and the comma stage. At this stage of development, the exact nuclei are difficult to identify, but the positions and topology suggest pharynx and intestines. By the pretzel stage, identification of the different pharyngeal muscles showing expression becomes possible. A similar expression was also observed in the pharynx of males, although the intestinal staining was more restricted to the posterior region. No expression was induced by the further deletion construct pTMZIV1219. In all cases, the most uniform and intense expression patterns were observed between L1 and L2 worms, and were completed by L2. From L3 to adult, there was a reduction in expression intensity. Both pharyngeal and intestinal expressions were evident within six hours after staining. |

CYP33E2 promoter-driven expression of GFP occurred exclusively in the pharynx and, not visible in each individual, in the pharyngeal-intestinal valve of the nematodes. This type of strong pharynx-restricted expression was observed throughout larval development and in adult nematodes. Expression was most prominent in the pharyngeal pro- and meta-corpus. Confocal imaging suggested marginal, muscle, and/or epithelial cells as the major expression sites of the pCYP33E2::GFP construct within the pharynx. Radially, only marginal cell types are continuously organized with three-fold symmetry around the pharyngeal lumen. Imaginary cross sections derived from confocal imaging series of the pro- and meta-corpus indicated that the GFP reporter was expressed in the three marginal mc1 cells, but not in the pm3 and pm4 muscle cells. A further labelling of the mc2 and mc3 marginal cells in the isthmus and terminal bulb becomes then visible. Expression was observed in finger-like fluorescent structures that represent the interlocking extensions that hold marginal cells to muscles. Furthermore, an expression of pCYP33E2::GFP also in the epithelial e1, e2, and e3 cells seems most likely. Fluorescence might also correspond to pm2 muscle cells. |

Expression is seen from early larval stages until adulthood. Strongest expression is seen in the pharyngeal musculature (expression is seen in all muscle cells, excluding m6 and m7, but including m8). Weak expression is seen in a few cells in the head and tail, which are probably neuronal. |

A less frequently observed components is of nuclei in the tail which is most likely hypodermis. A less frequently seen component is in vulC and vulD of L4 larvae and adult worms. Expression seen in unidentified groups of cells in elongating embryos. The most common and obvious component of this expression pattern is the strong staining in the terminal bulb of the pharynx (m6 and m7). Also fainter expression in the m2 nuclei of the procorpus. The most common and obvious component of this expression pattern is the strong staining in the terminal bulb of the pharynx (m6 and m7). Other less frequently observed components are-- vulC and vulD in L4 and adult worms, nuclei in the head and tail which are most likely hypodermis, m2 nuclei in the procorpus, and unidentified patches of staining in elongating embryos. |

We first used the gpa-16 promoter (Jansen et al., 1999) to broadly drive the expression of GCaMP3 in pharyngeal muscle. We characterized the expression pattern of this transgene using confocal microscopy and observed bright fluorescence in the pm2 and pm3 muscles and also in the mc1 marginal cells. We also observed occasional dim fluorescence in pm1 (3 of 10 animals). |

The second component is in the vm2 vulval muscles. The expression here is cytoplasmically localised, and covers only the period around the L4 to adult molt This gene has two distinct modes of expression. The earlier component is in a subset of cells of the pharynx, and is nuclear localised. Expression here is from late embryogenesis onwards, the subset consisting of the m4 muscles in the mid metacorpus,the m2 muscles and e1 and e2 epithelial cells of the procorpus, and the m8 muscle of the posterior terminal bulb. |

The last expression component to appear is in certain cells of the somatic gonad. The D-cells of the vulval labia and unidentified cells of the spermathecal structures begin expression in L4, whilst gonadal morphogenesis is ongoing. The D-cells do not express beyond the first oocyte fertilisations (no zygotes are usually visible when these cells are stained), the spermathecal staining lasting slightly longer into adulthood The next stage at which expression is evident is during the elongation phase of late embryogenesis when the worm is approximately 2 fold. The nuclei of the M2 motor neurones in the terminal bulb of the pharynx stain strongly. More pharyngeal cells show expression as morphogenesis proceeds until at hatching the two I1 interneurones of the metacorpus, either the e2 or m2 cells of the procorpus, and the m8 muscle cell at the pharyngeal-intestinal boundary can all be seen. This pattern remains through the rest of the life cycle, although the m8 expression is lost during early larval stages These early larval stages also see the appearance of expression in the tail region. The nuclei of the anal sphincter cell and 3/4 neuronal cells of the posterior ganglia comprise this regional component of the pattern This gene gives rise to a complicated multicomponent developmental expression pattern. Earliest expression is seen during the cleavage stage of embryogenesis, in the clonal descendants of the E blastomere, the founder cell giving rise the whole of the gut of the adult animal. Expression begins in Ea and Ep just after gastrulation, and continues into each of the granddaughters of these two cells. At this stage, the expressing cells clearly outline the emerging form of the gut. This component ends at about the 150/200 cell stage |

This pattern is very strong. This strain requires less than one hour of incubation for the pattern to be clearly seen. If left longer, non-localised staining of the pharyngeal muscles occurs obscuring the nuclei. There are three components to this pattern. The first is diffuse staining nucei in the procorpus (m2 and m3). The second is strong expession in the m4 nuclei in the metacorpus, and the final component involves m5, m6 and m7 in the terminal bulb. There is some mosaicism exhibited as not all components are seen in all worms. No staining has been seen in the isthmus. |

After the beginning of morphogenesis, inx-3 expression becomes more restricted to the pharynx, hypodermis, and intestine. By three-fold stage inx-3 expression appears in ventral cord motor neurons (strongest in DA neurons) along with continued strong pharyngeal expression. By hatching, its hypodermal expression disappears, while postembryonically born ventral cord motor neurons express it at low levels. Its pharyngeal (strong) and neuronal (faint) expressions continue to adulthood. |

Staining is first observed in precomma stage embryos. In all larval stages, expression is seen sporadically, as a number of nuclei in the head and occasional rows of paired nuclei down the body. This pattern seems to be highly mosaic as the number nuclei in the head bodywall that stain varies considerably. This mosaicism is also evident in expression of the bodywall nuclei in the body. These appear to be bodywall muscle. Some of the staining in the head appears to be that of the nuclei of the pharyngeal muscles (m2, m3, m4, m5, m6, m7). This component is a common feature of expression patterns from fusions with incomplete promoters, but this does not seem to be the case in this situation. Occasional staining in the nuclei of the posterior intestine is also seen. |
