  Type: Reporter_gene
  Pattern: The nhr-41b reporter gene is expressed consistently in the gut, chemosensory neurons, and head and tail hypodermal cells.
  Remark: Reporter gene fusion type not specified.
    Two GFP reporter constructs were generated, containing distinct putative promoters for nhr-41a and nhr-41b, the latter promoter corresponding to genomic DNA in the large fourth intron. The analysis suggests different expression patterns for the two nhr-41 mRNA isoforms, although it is a formal possibility that enhancers in the fourth intron could be acting on both presumed promoters. Thus, the nhr-41 reporter gene analysis may be revealing distinct functions for the two isoforms.
