WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr10708

• Pattern: Expression of the tiam-1 promoter::cfp construct was primarily in neurons. Most if not all neurons expressed the construct, including neurons in the head and tail, the ventral cord commissural motorneurons, the mechanosensory neurons (ALMs, PLMs, AVM, PVM) and the CAN, PDE, and PVD neurons. tiam-1promoter::cfp expression in neurons began in embryos and lasted throughout adulthood. No obvious expression outside of the nervous system was noted. However, tiam-1 might be endogenously expressed in other tissues, as some transcriptional elements might not be present in this transgene.
