In the
tmem-135 promoter::GFP-expressing strain, as well as in the eight independent TMEM-135::GFP-expressing strains, ubiquitous expression from the pretzel embryo to the adult stage was observed, despite mozaicism due to the extra-chromosomal array. More specifically,
tmem-135 expression was more strongly expressed in the lower intestine and in the pharynx. TMEM- 135::GFP showed a high level of expression throughout the entire length of the intestine, as well as in all epithelia.
