WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr10820

• Pattern: unc-29 was expressed in the body wall muscles, the sexually dimorphic anal depressor muscle, and some male-specific muscles, such as the spicule protractor muscles, the gubernacular erector and retractor muscles and the anterior oblique muscles. In addition, expression was observed in some ventral cord neurons and some head neurons. This non-a L-AChR subunit was not expressed on any spicule neuron.
• Primary Identifier: Expr10820

neuron with cell body associated with the ventral nerve cord.	ventral cord neuron	ventral cord motoneuron	WBbt:0005300
Longitudinal bands of muscle cells surrounding animal body, with one band running in each quadrant of the body, regulated contraction and relaxation of these muscles cause locomotion.	body wall musculature	body muscle	WBbt:0005813
neuron with its cell body situated in the head, excluding the pharynx.	head neuron		WBbt:0006751
a single, H-shaped cell which lies just above the anus and connects the roof of the anal canal to the dorsal bodywall; its contractions act to increase the size of the anal opening by lifting the roof of the rectum and hence facilitate expulsion of intestinal contents.	anal depressor muscle	dilator muscle	WBbt:0004292
