Figure 3. Expression of Transgenes with the Extended E-Box ADL Motif. (A)
sri-51::GFP transgene expressed in ADL neuron.(B)
srh-132::GFP transgene expressed in ADL neuron. This transgene is also expressed in the head mesodermal cell (not shown).(C)
odr-10::GFP transgene expressed in AWA neuron.(D)
odr-10(+ADL motif)::GFP transgene expressed in ADL neuron. Anterior is at left, and ventral is down. Arrowheads denote characteristic anterior extension of the ADL axon (A, B, and D) and ventral extension of the AWA axon (C) from the cell body. The sensory axons extend a short distance to the nerve ring. The dendrites of all sensory neurons extend anteriorly. Autofluorescence of the gut is visible in (B), (C), and (D).
