nrx-1 expression and localization. (A): Expression of a gfp-tagged version of the genomic copy of the
nrx-1 locus (see Fig. 1B for construct), expressed in transgenic animals. (a) Expression in a first larval stage animal. (b) Expression in head ganglia and nerve ring. (c) Expression in dorsal nerve cord and commissures. (d) Expression in ventral nerve cord with motor and interneuron. (e) Expression in ALM neuron. (f) Expression in neurons in tail ganglia. (B): Synaptic localization of NRX-1 protein. (a) Localization of gfp-tagged
nrx-1, fused to the promoter of the
sra-6 gene in the nerve ring of an adult wild type animal and in an
unc-104 mutant animal (b). (c) Localization of bfp-tagged
snt-1, fused to the promoter of the
sra-6 gene in the nerve ring of an adult wild type animal and in an
unc-104 mutant animal (d). (e) and (f) Overlap of panels above.
