PatternExpression of PAR2.4::DsRed proteins was first observed in the late embryonic stages or in the L1 stage and continued to adulthood. Expression of the proteins in the vulva and in distal tip cells (DTC) was observed in the late L3 or young adult stage, when this organ and these cells are formed. In adult worms, expression of the reporter was seen in vulval cells and distal tip cells, and an especially strong expression was observed in the lateral zone. To identify the cells expressing PAR2.4 in this region, the PAR2.4::DsRed reporter transgene was injected into gonads of the JR667 strain that expresses GFP in the nuclei of seam cells, which are in the cell lineage of neuronal stem cells and are glia-like neuron-supporting cells. Strong PAR2.4::DsRed signals were found in the cytoplasm of seam cells expressing strong GFP signals, which suggest that PAR2.4 proteins are strongly expressed in these cells.
