PatternHybridization of mlc probes to wild type demonstrated that mlc-1 is expressed in body-wall muscles, pharyngeal muscles, and vulval muscles. mlc-1 mRNA is present in all regions of the pharynx (procorpus, metacorpus, isthmus, and terminal bulb). mlc-1 mRNA was not detected in several of the minor muscle groups, such as the intestinal, uterine, anal depressor, and sphincter muscles, but these tissues were not well-preserved by the fixation methods. Similarly, mlc mRNA was not detected in nonmuscle cells, although such expression might be below detectable levels.
