WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9223

• Pattern: chd-3p::DsRed2 is strongly expressed in most if not all cells of the embryo. In young adults, let-418 transgene was primarily expressed in the head, the vulva, the tail, the ventral nerve cord and the distal tip cells. In addition, chd-3p::DsRed2 showed expression in the pharynx.
