WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr1063

• Pattern: Using a genomic segment extending 9.3 kb upstream of the predicted ATG, observed initial embryonic expression in neurons and later expression in all tissues. This expression pattern begins late in embryogenesis (two-fold stage) and continues throughout postembryonic development. A similar pattern was observed with reporter constructs containing only 3.6 kb of upstream genomic sequences, although the intensity of expression was reduced compared with the longer construct. Truncation of the 5' end of the reporter genes to a restriction site within the first intron eliminated expression of the transgenic reporter genes.
