Table 1. Ciliary localization of CNG channel subunits is dependent on other subunits in a cell-specific manner.
cDNAs were fused to gfp coding sequences. Expression in AWB and ASK was driven under the str-1 and srbc-66 promoters, respectively.
TAX-4 and CNG-3 fusion proteins were localized to the entire AWB cilium; other fusion proteins in AWB and ASK were localized to the middle segments (see Fig. 3).
Differences among proportions in different categories were compared to respective wild-type values in the relevant neuron type for statistical significance unless indicated otherwise. P values were determined using a χ2 test of independence. Only differences at P<0.05 or lower are indicated.
Compared with values in tax-4 mutants.
Compared with values in cng-3 mutants.
Animals were grown at 20°C. n = 20–56 animals each. The same array was examined in wild-type and mutant backgrounds. n.d., not determined.
