| Pattern | Troponin I (TNI) is expressed in the C. elegans somatic gonad and colocalizes with non-striated actin networks. TNI is expressed in the myoepithelial sheath and is localized to nonstriated actin networks. In dissected gonads from wild-type worms, TNI was specifically expressed in the myoepithelial sheath that surrounds oocytes in the proximal gonad but not in the spermatheca, oocytes or distal arm containing non-myoepithelial sheath, germline cells and distal-tip cell. TNI colocalized to non-striated networks of actin filaments in the myoepithelial sheath. | Primary Identifier | Expr12659 |
