WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr1454

• Pattern: The transformed animals exhibited fluorescence in all of the muscles of the metacorpus (pm4) and the isthmus (pm5), precisely those muscles onto which M3 synapses. The GFP staining of pharyngeal muscle began shortly before hatching and persisted throughout adulthood. Strong staining was also seen in a few neurons of the head, including RMED, RMEV and the bilaterally symmetric RMGs. Weak staining was seen in unidentified ventrally located neurons contributing to the dorsal and ventral sublateral nerve cords. Two ventral cord neurons near the anus stain consistently, namely DA9 and a more anteriorly located neuron that is likely to be VA12.
