WormMine

WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Observation of the fluorescent reporter Venus fused to the nep-2 promoter suggested that nep-2 is mainly expressed in muscles, glia-like cells (GLRs), and several classes of neurons. Primary Identifier  Expr9142
Remark  Expression in each of these tissues is driven by separate cis-acting elements in the promoter region. Picture: Fig. 3A to 3F.
