Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  GFP signals were observed in the head and pharynx, spermatheca, uterus and vulva, some cells in tail and ventral neurons. Strong GFP expression was observed in seam cells. Furthermore, apl-1 expression in seam cells was temporally regulated. The GFP signal in seam cells was not detected (or in rare cases, weakly detected) from L1 to early L4 stages, frequently detected from the mid L4 stage, and almost always detected with high-level expression at late L4 and adult stages. This temporal expression profile of apl-1 was observed in two independent integrated lines of apl-1::gfp::unc-54. No temporal change of apl-1 expression was apparent in any other cells).
