Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  The lag-2 promoter is specific to the DTC in L4 and adult stages. We observed broader lag-2 expression in the L1 stage in the somatic gonad precursors Z1 and Z4 and in the L2 stage in the seam cells. Primary Identifier  Expr14503
