WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr14651

• Pattern: Within the sex-shared nervous system, we found that mab-3 is not only male-specifically expressed in the ADF neuron, as previously reported (Yi et al., 2000), but also in additional head neurons, including the embryonically generated SMD head motor neurons. We found that like the male-specific, neuronal expression of lin-29a, male-specific neuronal expression of mab-3 is precisely timed to commence at the L4 stage.
