WormMine

WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  GFP expression from this construct was primarily observed in head muscles and the pharynx. In some animals, GFP expression was also observed in the body wall muscles. No evidence show that GFP expression from the ucp-4 promoter was affected by temperature. Primary Identifier  Expr3239
