| Pattern | Both gfp and cfp fusions generated by fosmid recombineering drove body wall muscle expression. In addition to the muscle cells, GFP was seen throughout the pseudocoelom and in the six coelomocytes, but again only in adults. These components were even stronger for CFP. The abundant pseudocoelomic fluorescence made it difficult to discern the muscle cell component and, hence, it is unclear if expression also occurs in vulval muscle cells as observed with the lacZ fusion. | Primary Identifier | Expr4238 |
| Remark | No GO_term assigned. | Subcellular Localization | The fluorescent fusion proteins were not nuclear-localized, but were observed in striations. |
