WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr8653

• Pattern: Expressed throughout the animal, initiating expression in early embryos, and acculminating in the adult with intense expression in the pharynx, seam cells, distal tip cells (DTCs), somatic gonad and vulval precursor cells (VPCs), vulva and spermatheca.
• Primary Identifier: Expr8653
• Remark: Picture: Fig. 1.
• Subcellular Localization: The GFP::ALG-1 protein is localized in the cytoplasm and can be detected highly concentrated in subcellular granules.
