WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr16493

• Pattern: By characterizing the expression patterns of alh-9, alh- 11, and chdh-1 transgenic reporters, we identified expression of all three putative biosynthesis pathway genes in neurons. In particular, the RIM neurons showed expression of both chdh-1 and alh-11, indicating that these neurons have the capacity to synthesize betaine from choline.
