Subcellular_localizationzag-1::YFP signal was detected only in the nuclei of cells.
TypeReporter_gene
PatternExpression was detected in a few nuclei in the head as the embryo reached morphogenesis stage at ~300 minutes of development. Expression was identified in more and more nuclei as development proceeded, so that by the 1 1/2-fold stage a large number of neuronal cells in the head and a few cells in the pharynx expressed zag-1::YFP. At this stage expression was also prominent in motorneurons in the ventral cord and in neurons in tail ganglia. Expression was maintained during the 3-fold stage, but reduced to undetectable levels in most cells before hatching, when only a few cells in the head still expressed zag-1::YFP. In the L1/L2 stage expression was detected transiently in postembryonic motorneurons. Expression was maintained in a few head neurons throughout the entire life cycle.
Pzag-1::YFP construct was expressed predominantly in neurons in head and tail ganglia, starting approximately midway through embryogenesis. In some of these neurons expression was maintained throughout development. Additional expression was found consistently in the intestinal and anal depressor muscles during all life stages as well as occasionally in body-wall muscles during embryogenesis.
