Figure 2. GFP expression pattern of
rcn-1. A transgenic vector containing either 3.1 kb or 1.6 kb of 5' upstream promoter sequences of
rcn-1 fused to the GFP coding region expresses (A) throughout the body of the worm, specifically in the (B) marginal cells of the pharynx, (C) hypodermal seam cells, (D) vulva epithelial cells, (E) vulva muscle tissue (F) ventral and dorsal nerve cords and commissures, and in structures of the male tail including (G) diagonal muscles, (H) sensory rays, and (I) spicules.
