mNG tag inserted into endogenous mls-2 locus after the start codon using CRISPR/Cas9 engineering, producing a translational mNG::MLS-2 reporter protein. Derived by SEC excision of mls-2(vy247[mNG::SEC::mls-2 knock-in]) in parental strain. mNG::MLS-2 is detected in the nucleus of a few cells in embryos, and localizes to the nucleus of a subset of head cells and the M mesoblast in larvae and adults.
