Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  LAM-3/Laminin alpha-A immunostaining was evident between the germ layers, including on most surfaces of the endoderm. In particular, LAM-3 localized around the surfaces of the endoderm row 8 cells, just before and as the somatic gonad precursors (SGPs) extended projections between the anterior surfaces of these endoderm cells and the posterior surfaces of the primordial germ cells (PGCs). A functional LAM-1-GFP fusion protein showed a pattern of localization similar to LAM-3, including around the gonadal primordium at later stages. Therefore, laminin basement membrane is present on endodermal surfaces where the SGPs migrate and extend projections around the PGCs. Primary Identifier  Expr10827
