WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr13659

• Pattern: RCAN-1::GFP is expressed in various head neurons, pharyngeal muscle, ventral nerve cord, and hypodermal seam cells where immunostaining for RCAN-1 was also prominent. GFP fluorescence was also detected in an excretory canal cell and vulva. rcan-1 was expressed in various tissues including male tail and hypodermal seam cells, which also highly expressed tax-6/calcineurin. RCAN-1::GFP is expressed in various head neurons, pharyngeal muscle, ventral nerve cord, and hypodermal seam cells where immunostaining for RCAN-1 was also prominent. GFP fluorescence was also detected in an excretory canal cell and vulva.
• Primary Identifier: Expr13659
