PatternNHR-23::GFP somatic cell expression persisted in L4 larvae, specifically in hypodermal cells of the head, vulval precursor cells of hermaphrodites, and hypodermal and tail cells of males. Notably, NHR-23::GFP was also expressed in the sperm-producing germlines of males and L4 hermaphrodites, but not in hermaphrodites producing only oocytes. Previous studies missed this spermatocyte expression as transgenes are frequently silenced in the germline (Kelly et al., 1997) and immunolabeling was limited to embryos (Kostrouchova et al., 1998, 2001).
