WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr8656

• Pattern: The fusion protein encoded by the transgene was preferentially detected in several tissues including the nervous system. However, its presence was not uniform. Within the nervous system, ELPC-1::GFP was seen predominantly in a pair of neurons that control egg-laying, the HSNs, and in chemosensory neurons in the head. Within the latter class of neurons, the ELPC-1::GFP level was particularly high in the ASE, ADF and ASK pairs of neurons. Outside of the nervous system, a strong ELPC-1::GFP signal was seen in the pharynx and the vulva. In all animals examined, ELPC-1::GFP expression was also seen in the two CAN cells.
• Primary Identifier: Expr8656
• Remark: Picture: Fig 3.
• Subcellular Localization: In the nervous system, expression was seen both within the cell bodies and along the entire lengths of the neuronal processes. Outside of the nervous system, in all cells in which ELPC-1::GFP was seen, fluorescence was restricted to the cytoplasm.
