8 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr15164
• Pattern: Expression of the nlp-2p::gfp reporter transgene was restricted to one pair of head neurons and four uterine cells. Based on their location and sensory cilia morphology, we identified the head neurons as the olfactory AWA neurons. The uterus cells were identified as the neurosecretory uv1 cells.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1013
• Pattern: Reporter construct is expressed primarily or exclusively in neurons or "endocrine/secretory" cells. GFP expression in non-neuronal tissues include the gut (frequently), specific somatic gonad cells, and in pharyngeal or vulval muscles (rarely). No expression is detected in hypodermal, body wall muscle or germ tissues. nlp-2 is only expressed in the gut and in two neurons in the head.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1687
• Remark: The cellular expression pattern for nlp-2 fragments was indistinguishable from the cellular expression pattern for nlp-2 subcloned constructs. Transgenic lines were generated by coinjection of the nlp::gfp construct (5070 ng/ul) and lin-15 rescue construct (pJM24,100 ng/ul) into lin-15(n765ts) animals. At least two independent transgenic lines were analyzed for each nlp gene; 510 animals were scored per line. 1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3 -tetramethylindodicarbocyanine perchlorate (Molecular Probes) was used to stain amphid and phasmid neurons to facilitate identification.
• Pattern: Expressed in 1 head neuron, secretory cells near vulva, intestine.

• Primary Identifier: Expr15165
• Pattern: nlp-2 mRNA expression peaked in preparation of the L3 and L4 molts, when lin-42 levels are low, suggesting that nlp-2 expression is regulated, at least partially, at the transcriptional level.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2014294
• Pattern: Single cell embryonic expression. Only cell types with an expression fraction of greater 0.2 of the maximum expressed fraction are labeled (Full data can be downloaded from http://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/packer2019/). The colors represent the broad cell class to which the cell type has been assigned. The size of the point is proportional to the log2 of the numbers of cells in the dataset of that cell type. Interactive visualizations are available as a web app (https://cello.shinyapps.io/celegans/) and can also be installed as an R package (https://github.com/qinzhu/VisCello.celegans).
