WormMine

WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  A promoter region 2.9-kb upstream of the most 5' SL1 splice site of unc-53 was used, and strong GFP expression was observed in the excretory cell, in neurons in head and tail ganglia, and in several classes of ventral cord motoneuron, as well as in the sex myoblasts. Primary Identifier  Expr8547
Remark  New Anatomy_term: sex myoblasts. Picture: Fig. 1C, 1D. Reporter gene fusion type not specified.
