WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr14881

• Pattern: At the L4 larval stage, famk-1 is transcribed in somatic gonad tissues, prominently in the spermatheca and to a lesser extent in the gonad sheath and vulva, in the body-wall muscles, and in the rectum.

five pairs of thin gonadal sheath cells form a single layer covering the germ line component of each arm, each pair occupying a stereotyped position along the gonad proximal-distal axis.	gonadal sheath cell		WBbt:0005828
The components of the gonad that are separate from the germline proper. In hermaphrodite, these include five tissues which are all derived from the somatic primordium : the distal tip cells, the gonadal sheath, the spermatheca, the spermatheca-uterine valve (sp-ut) and the uterus.	somatic gonad	somatic germline	WBbt:0005785
