Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Transgenic C. elegans expressing the cuti-1::gfp translational transgene (WT030) displayed GFP expression in the developing hypodermis of mid- and late-stage embryos. GFP expression was also observed in the epithelia throughout development until the fourth-stage larva. At no time was GFP observed in adult stages. Expression was seen exclusively in the cytoplasm of the hypodermis, in the vulval and anal epithelium, and in the excretory pore. Strong expression was also observed in the seam cells and at the seam cell boundary. All of these tissues are covered by cuticle or involved in cuticle synthesis and secretion. Primary Identifier  Expr8586
Remark  Picture: Figure 5a, 5b.. Subcellular Localization  Within the hypodermis, GFP expression was observed at small discrete points, possibly corresponding to vesicle-like structures.
