The pattern of spatial and temporal expression of M142.2/cut-6 in the daf-1 and daf-2 mutant backgrounds was identical to that found in the wild type N2 background, confirming that M142.2 was expressed in late embryos and L2d predauers.
A daf-31 promoter::GFP reporter gene indicates daf-31 is expressed in multiple tissues including neurons, pharynx, intestine and hypodermal cells from L1 to the adult stages.
Expression of a GFP reporter driven by the predicted Ce-daf-1 promoter localised to amphids, ventral cords, gonadal distal tip cells (DTC), intestine, head ganglia and tail neurons.
DAF-19A/B were expressed only in nonciliated neurons and not in ciliated sensory neurons. In summary, DAF-19A/B are expressed in 200 to 240 nonciliated neurons.
