PatternFluorescence was observed in epithelial cells that synthesize cuticle. Expressed in the hypodermis, including the major body syncytium, hyp7, and hypodermal cells in the head and tail. Also expressed in the lateral seam cells. Fluorescence from nas-37p::gfp-pest in seam cells was observed only before the L4 stage-to-adult molt, when the cells terminally differentiate and fuse. A pulse of fluorescence was observed in the hypodermis prior to molting. Expression of nas-37p::gfp-pest also cycled in phase with all four molts. Expression of the gfp fusion genes was never detected in the hypodermis of gravid adults that no longer molt.
