TypeReporter_gene
PatternReporter gene constructs in which gfp was inserted into various regions of the 5 kb rescuing unc-122 locus showed little to no gfp fluorescence or exclusive expression in coelomocytes. Smaller reporter gene constructs that contain only 5 upstream regions of the unc-122 locus also yielded strong and consistent expression in coelomocytes.

RemarkAlthough this expression is strikingly similar to the coelomocyte expression of the sea urchin OLF protein amassin, authors rule out the possibility that unc-122 acts in coelomocytes to control locomotory behavior.
