Expression and subcellular localization of AIPR-1. a A GFP reporter, expressed under the control of genomic DNA upstream of the aipr-1 initiation site, showed expression in many cell types, such as motor neurons along the ventral nerve cord (VNC), body-wall muscle cells (BWM), amphid sheath cells (Amsh), spermatheca (Sp), and the intestine (Int). b, c AIPR-1 is expressed in all acetylcholine and GABA motor neurons in the ventral nerve cord. Acetylcholine and GABA motor neurons were labeled by expressing mRFP and mStrawberry under the control of Punc-17 and Punc-47, respectively. Images were taken from a segment anterior b and posterior c to the vulva. d, AIPR-1::GFP displayed both diffuse and punctate distribution along the dorsal nerve cord, and the GFP puncta colocalized with the presynaptic marker TagRFP::ELKS-1. Images were taken from a dorsal segment anterior to the vulva. Scale bars, 20 µm a– c and 10 µm d, e
