WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr4591

• Pattern: The full-length dyf-5::gfp construct showed weak GFP expression in many neurons in the head, including amphid and labial sensory neurons and three pairs of neurons in the tail, including the phasmid sensory neurons. In addition, expression was observed in many cells in the male tail.
• Primary Identifier: Expr4591
• Subcellular Localization: This DYF-5::GFP fusion could be detected uniformly in axons, cell bodies, and dendrites. In addition, authors observed strong fluorescence at the transition zones, which connect the cilia with the dendrites, and weak fluorescence uniformly in the cilia.
