WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr13700

• Pattern: GFP::UNC-120 expression was observed in the 95 BWM that run along the anterior-posterior axis, but also in the 20 gonadal sheath cells and in 55 cells in the head (37 pharyngeal muscle cells, nine marginal cells, and nine pharyngeal epithelial cells).
• Primary Identifier: Expr13700
