Fig. 1. egl-1 is transcriptionally active in the NSM sister cells but not
in the NSMs or undead NSM sister cells. (A) Merged Nomarski and
epifluorescence image of the anterior bulb of the pharynx of a
ced-3(n717) L1 larva carrying an integrated
Pegl-1his24-gfp reporter construct
(bcIs37). Pegl-1his24-gfp is expressed
in the NSM sister cell but not in the NSM. The complete genotype of the
animals scored was ced-3(n717); bcIs37. (B) Merged
Nomarski and epifluorescence image of the anterior bulb of the pharynx of a
ces-1(703gf); ced-3(n717) L1 larva
carrying an integrated Pegl-1his24-gfp reporter
construct (bcIs37). Pegl-1his24-gfp is
not expressed in the undead NSM sister cell or the NSM. The complete genotype
of the animals scored was unc-87(e1216)
ces-1(n703gf); ced-3(n717);
bcIs37.
