WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr12707

• Pattern: The single-copy transgene was expressed at much lower levels and in a more ubiquitous manner than previously described (Klerkx et al., 2009). Nuclear expression was observed, not only in previously reported cells (Expr8783), but also in the anchor cell (AC), uterine tissue and germ line.
• Primary Identifier: Expr12707
• Subcellular Localization: VRK-1 accumulates at the nuclear envelope at prophase and is associated with chromosomes in anaphase.
