WS294

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  ric-7 promoter expresses nuclear localized Cherry in many neurons, including both cholinergic and GABAergic motor neurons. Primary Identifier  Expr9932
Subcellular Localization  GFP-tagged RIC-7 constructs was expressed in the cholinergic DA neurons (using the unc-129 promoter). The RIC-7::GFP protein was localized in a punctate distribution in both cell bodies and dorsal cord axons. The majority of RIC-7 puncta co-localized with an SV marker (mCherry-tagged Endophilin), suggesting that RIC-7 is targeted to synapses.
