Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  GAR-2 was expressed in a subset of neurons from the folding stage during embryogenesis through adulthood. This observation is consistent with RT-PCR results showing the presence of gar-2 mRNA throughout development. GAR-2 was expressed in some head neurons with ciliated endings, which are putative sensory neurons, in many cells of the ventral cord, which are considered to be motor neurons, and in the hermaphrodite-specific neuron (HSN) motor neurons, which innervate vulval muscles in the hermaphrodite.

Remark  Reporter gene fusion type not specified.
