WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9673

• Pattern: In L4 larvae, dsh-1 promoter activity was detected in many head and ventral cord neurons, some bilaterally located mid-body neurons including the HSNs, as well as non-neuronal tissue such as somatic gonad cells, uterine cells, vulval muscle and vulval epithelial cells. Co-expression with the VC1-6 specific reporter Plin-11::RFP revealed that the subset of ventral cord neurons expressing dsh-1 includes all six VC neurons.
• Primary Identifier: Expr9673

The components of the gonad that are separate from the germline proper. In hermaphrodite, these include five tissues which are all derived from the somatic primordium : the distal tip cells, the gonadal sheath, the spermatheca, the spermatheca-uterine valve (sp-ut) and the uterus.	somatic gonad	somatic germline	WBbt:0005785
