acdh-1 transcripts are expressed in the intestine.

Description: Stellaris smFISH probes targeting acdh-1, a short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, are shown in red (Cal Fluor 610). DAPI/blue marks embryonic nuclei, and PGL-1::GFP shows the corresponding location of P granules surrounding germ cell nuclei (arrowheads, green). During embryogenesis (A), acdh-1 expression begins in the E cells (arrow, red). Expression continues in the developing intestine, shown in red, throughout embryogenesis. Intestinal expression of acdh-1 persists through larval development in the L1 (B) and L2 (C) stages. These results extend previous findings from Arda et al., where acdh-1 was shown to be expressed in the adult intestine. scale = 20μ
