ajm-1 : dlg-1

"Immunostaining with the monoclonal antibody MH27 (which recognises JAM-1; Francis and Waterston, 1991; Mohler et al., 1998) showed a completely discontinuous pattern in dlg-1(RNAi) embryos (Fig. 1G,H), in contrast to the belt-like staining observed in wild-type embryos (Fig. 1E,F)."

unc-52 : unc-97

"Staining with anti-UNC-52 antibodies reveals staining at periodicities corresponding to the sites of the dense bodies and M-line structures (Fig. 2B) (Francis and Waterston, 1991). In unc-97(su110) mutant animals, the periodicity of the staining is abrogated; instead, UNC-52 appears more diffuse (Fig. 2 B)"

hlh-1 : myo-3 : pat-3 : unc-89 : unc-98

"In almost all treatment paradigms, over-expression of hlh-1 resulted in widespread myogenesis; most cells had adopted a muscle-like fate. The muscle marker routinely used to assay myogenesis was myosin heavy chain A [MHC A (Miller et al., 1986) Fig. 1]. Although high levels of MHC A were detected, filaments were disorganized and these muscle-like cells fail to contract. To determine the extent to which these cells adopted a true muscle-like fate, we tested several additional muscle markers, including several structural proteins. The muscle-like cells resulting from heat shock-induced HLH-1 activated a myo-3::gfp reporter gene (Fire and Waterston, 1989) and were positive for filamentous actin, UNC-89 (Benian et al., 1996), UNC-98 (Mercer et al., 2003) and PAT-3 (Gettner et al., 1995; Francis and Waterston, 1985) (data not shown)."
