PatternThe DAF-8::GFP translational fusion was expressed in developing embryos from the pre-comma stage through hatching. It was most highly expressed in L1 and gradually decreased into adulthood. Expression was strongly downregulated in dauer larvae. In larval stages, DAF-8::GFP was expressed throughout development in the ventral nerve cord, intestine, gonadal distal tip cells (DTCs) and subsets of head and tail neurons, most strongly in head neurons ASI and ADL. These neurons were identified by comparing GFP expression with DiI staining, which stains ciliated neurons in the head. In adults, DAF-8::GFP was also detected in the excretory cell.
