WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr16006

• Pattern: Consistent with the extrachromosomal expression pattern of FUST-1, endogenously mRFP-tagged FUST-1 was mainly expressed in the nucleus of neurons and intestinal cells. Moreover, FUST-1 was also found in the nuclei in gonads, which was not observed in extrachromosomal expression, probably due to silencing of the multicopy transgenes in the germline (Merritt and Seydoux 2010).
• Primary Identifier: Expr16006

Major cell type of nervous tissue, specialized for transmission of information in the form of patterns of impulses.	neuron	neurone	WBbt:0003679
organ producing either sperm or ova.	gonad		WBbt:0005175
any of 20 large epithelial cells which form a tube and are mostly situated as bilaterally symmetric pairs around the tubular lumen. Each of these cell pairs forms an intestinal ring ( II-IX int rings). The most anterior intestinal ring (int ring I), however, is made of four cells. Intestinal cells contain large nuclei with large nucleoli and numerous autofluorescent granules in their cytoplasm.	intestinal cell		WBbt:0005792
