Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Beginning in L4, SMA-1/βH is seen in both the spermathecal bag and SP-UTvalve with the strongest expression in the 4 cells most proximal to the SP-UT valve. Interestingly, this expression pattern changes during spermathecal development, and by adulthood, SMA-1/βH becomes restricted to a ring connecting the spermathecal bag and SP-UT valve.
