Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  ADM-1 localized to sperm in the gonads of adult males and inside spermathecae of hermaphrodite. Embryos from 2 cells - beginning of morphogenesis shows punctate staining between cells. Embryos from comma - 2-fold stages of elongation show staining localized between ventral hypodermal cells and in the head. Embryos from 2-fold to 3-fold show strong staining in luminal domains of the pharynx and buccal cavity. After hatching in different larval stages, there are punctate hypodermal staining, bp2 of ADM-1 staining in the head, two large cells stain close to sheath cells associated with chemosensory organs. Two smaller cells in tail correspond to the sheath cells of the phasmids. Staining in the area where sheath cells surround the sensory dendrites and in processes of the sheath cells. The monoclonal antibody stains in the sperm between embryonic cells in the pharyngeal apical domain in sheath cells surrounding sensory neurons, in vulva and in hypodermis. Expression is maintained from sperm throughout all of the embryonic and larval stages and in adults. Primary Identifier  Expr594
Remark  See Expr593, and Expr595 for expression patterns for the same locus. This information was extracted from published material (Archana Sharma-Oates, Andrew Mounsey and Ian A. Hope). Subcellular Localization  Staining was punctate in structures inside and surrounding the sperm but excluding their nuclei.
