| Pattern | A highly reproducible pattern of DKF-1 expression was observed as animals matured from embryo to adult. Intense fluorescence signals corresponding to DKF-1GFP revealed robust kinase accumulation in both (a) a region bounded by the anterior and posterior bulbs of the pharynx and (b) a tail area that contains lumbar, dorsorectal and pre-anal ganglia. Specifically, DKF-1 is differentially enriched in a cluster of cells that are immediately adjacent to the posterior pharyngeal bulb. Strong signals also emanate from cells positioned along the lateral surface of this bulb in animals carrying the dkf-1P::DKF-1GFP transgene. At the anterior pharyngeal bulb, DKF-1 accumulates selectively in bodies and in very thin processes (dendrites and axons) of two neurons. Nearly all cells expressing DKF-1 appear to be neurons. Two fluorescent cells with similar sizes and locations (at the anterior edge of the isthmusposterior bulb) may be M2 motor neurons. The location of the more posterior fluorescent neuron approximates the position of the cell body of an NSM neuron. DKF-1 also accumulates in a cell resembling I1. Other candidate DKF-1-enriched cells in the pharyngeal region include: the AWB, ADL, and ADF chemosensory neurons; and AVB and AIA interneurons.n C. elegans tail, DKF-1GFP expression is differentially elevated in neurons located within the dense neuropile of several tail ganglia. The pattern of fluorescence reveals that cell bodies and/or processes of phasmid neurons (PHA, PHB, and PHC), interneurons (PVC, DVA, DVB, PVQ, PVT) and motor neurons (VD13, DD6, VA12) are candidate sites for accumulation of DKF-1 protein. | ||
