WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr4787

• Pattern: glt-1 is strongly expressed in body wall muscles from early developmental stages. Early in development glt-1 expression was seen in hypodermal cells. Towards adulthood, the GLT-1::GFP signal becomes more restricted to the head muscles.
• Primary Identifier: Expr4787
• Subcellular Localization: In head muscles, bright GFP punctae seem to project from the cell soma towards the center of the nematode head
