| Pattern | SRP-2 expression is evident in numerous cells of the C. elegans embryo in the early stages of development (36-100-cell stage). However, in the later stages of embryonic development, expression is confined to a few cells of the anterior hypoderm and the eggshell. In the L1 and L2 larvae, expression is seen in a number of hypodermal (possibly hyp 1, 2, and 3) cells near the buccal cavity. Expression is also seen in the sensory support (sheath or socket) cells of several sensilla. Strong expression is visible in the posterior intestinal cells, seam cells, and the body hypoderm. In the adult hermaphrodite, strong punctate expression is seen in the hypodermal cells surrounding the anterior and posterior bulb of the pharynx. Expression was also seen in hyp 7 cells near the vulval opening. A strong striated staining pattern was seen in what appears to be the fibrous organelles that link muscle/hypoderm/cuticle. GFP expression was also observed in the phasmid (PHA and PHB) neurons, which was confirmed by co-staining with the amphid neuron-specific dye, DiI. The overall SRP-2::GFP expression pattern was similar in the hermaphrodites and males. | ||
