Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  KAP::GFP, OSM-1::GFP, and OSM-6::GFP fusion proteins are expressed in amphid and phasmid chemosensory neurons. Primary Identifier  Expr3027
Subcellular Localization  They appear to concentrate at the base of the transition zones, which correspond to the basal bodies of motile and sensory cilia. These fusion proteins are seen to emerge from the transition zones as small fluorescent particles that move in a bidirectional fashion along the sensory cilia, displaying anterograde movement from the transition zone toward the tip of the ciliary axoneme and retrograde movement from the cilium tip back toward the transition zone.
