WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9601

• Pattern: paqr-3 is weakly expressed only in the hypodermal cells. Because this gene is embedded within a dense cluster of short rRNA genes, we constructed a second construct harboring a longer (3.2 kb) stretch of the sequence upstream of the start codon to drive the gfp reporter. This showed paqr-3 expression in hypodermal cells, duct cells, rectal gland, gonad sheath and vulva cells.
