WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr10586

• Pattern: ddr-2p::GFP reporter gene expression began at the end of gastrulation with strong expression in hypodermal cells and later also in a few neurons in the head. Post-embryonically neuronal expression was limited to a subgroup of neurons in the head and tail and some motor neurons in the VNC. Expression outside the nervous system was most prominent in seam cells, rectal gland cells and several non-neuronal cells in the tail. The DDR-2::GFP translational fusion co-localized with a PVP marker confirming the expression of DDR-2 in the PVP neurons.
• Primary Identifier: Expr10586
• Subcellular Localization: DDR-2::GFP localized to neuronal cell bodies and axons.

	The stage that begins when a C.elegans individual is fully-developed and has reached maturity.		adult Ce	WBls:0000041
	The C. elegans life stage spanning 620-800min(hatch) after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. A stage after elongation is over. The last stage of embryogenesis. Also called pre-hatched embryo, late embryo or morphogenetic embryo.		fully-elongated embryo Ce	WBls:0000021
	A developmental life stage of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans that occurs from egg hatching until adulthood.		larva Ce	WBls:0000023
	The C. elegans life stage spanning 350-620min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The stage that embryo starts elongation until elongation is over.		elongating embryo Ce	WBls:0000015
	The C. elegans life stage spanning 290-350min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Proliferate from 421 cells to 560 cells. The stage when embryo just finished gastrulation and is enclosing.		enclosing embryo Ce	WBls:0000013
