Expression patterns of unc-101 and
apm-1. The two genes are expressed ubiquitously
throughout development. The left panels show expression patterns of
unc-101 and the right panels those of
apm-1. (A-D) show embryos consisting of ∼ 100
cells, (E-H), animals at their L1 stage, (I-L), the head region of
animals at their L4 stage, and (M-P) show the vulval regions of L4
stage animals. A, C, M, and N are Nomarski images of the embryos; E, F,
I, and J are DAPI staining images showing locations of the nuclei. All
others show GFP expression. Both genes are strongly expressed during
embryogenesis and at the L1 stage. At the L4 stage,
unc-101 is strongly expressed in the pharynx and in the
vulval cells, and apm-1 is strongly expressed in the
nerve ring, as well as in the vulval cells. The arrows in (M-P) are the
invaginations of the vulvae. The scale bar is 10 μm.
