Patternpcdr-1p::GFP expression was observed in ciliated neurons in the head and neurons in the ventral nerve cord (VNC). In the VNC pcdr-1p::GFP expression co-localised with acr-2p::mCherry, which marks the cholinergic motor neurons, however we also observed GFP positive cell bodies which were not colocalised with this marker suggesting that PCDR-1 is expressed in both cholinergic andnon-cholinergic neurons in the VNC. we also observed expression of pcdr-1p::GFP in the vulval muscles and in non-neuronal cells in the tail. To determine the identity of these non-neuronal cells we co-expressed mCherry from a 1.3Kb fragment of the egl-5 promoter that drives expression in rectal epithelial cells. pcdr-1p::GFP expression co-localised with egl-5p::mCherry indicating that PCDR-1 was expressed in the rectal epithelium.
