The deletion or the mutation of the individual 6 bp elements of the ASJ motif in the ssu-1 promoter robustly decreases gene ex- pression in ASJ, indicating that the ASJ motif is also functional in ssu-1.
Mutation of either of the two individual 6 bp elements resulted in the abolishment of GFP expression in ASJ neurons, while mutation of the 3 bp linker did not disrupt GFP expression.
