Expression patterns of egl-47::gfp reporter transgenes. A-D, GFP expression driven from the egl-47 isoform A promoter. E-H, GFP expression driven from the egl-47 isoform B promoter. A, E, Head region. Arrows point to fluorescent processes of the nerve ring flanked by a number of associated cell bodies. B, F, Midbody region. Small arrows indicate fluorescent neural processes of the ventral cord; large arrows indicate the HSN cell bodies; asterisks indicate the vulvas. C, G, Tail region. Arrows indicate the PVQ neural cell bodies, which send processes anteriorly along the ventral nerve cord. D, H, Midbody region of animals in the fourth larval stage. Large arrows indicate fluorescent vulval cells; small arrows indicate fluorescent neural processes of the ventral cord. EGL-47 isoforms A and B have similar expression patterns. In the adult, the HSNs are the only cells of the egg-laying system that express egl-47.
