A yfp-
lect-2 knock in strain showed bright YFP signals in coelomocytes. In addition to the bright fluorescence in the coelomocytes, YFP was also detected as stripe patterns that correspond to neuropils and commissures. In particular, LECT-2::YFP localizes to the sublateral nerve cord and muscle borders where the 3rd PVD dendrite elaborates and commissures where many of the 2o PVD dendrites grow along.
