WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr3130

• Pattern: A GFP-tagged DAC-1 fusion protein is expressed strongly in the AFD and weakly in the AWC, ASE, and ASK chemosensory neurons in the head and is nuclear localized. Expression was also observed in the alae, which arise from fusion of the hypodermal seam cells as well as additional unidentified cells in the tail.
• Primary Identifier: Expr3130
• Subcellular Localization: Expressed in nuclei.

Small linear ridges running along the lateral lines of the cuticle, lengthwise along the body; these thickenings lie in register with the seam cells which likely produce them and are present in the cuticle of the L1, dauer and adult stages, but not in other larval stages. The alae are suspected to provide better traction when the animal generates a bodywave. Since the animal usually lies on its side, the alae are in perfect position to catch against the substrate.	cuticular ala	alae	WBbt:0007832
