WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr7691

• Pattern: 3 components. 1. Vulval precursor cells, becoming stronger first in P6p and then in P5p and P7p, retained in P3p,P4p and P8p. Oddly always appears in 3 cells anterior of P5p, not 2, as if P2p is also expressing. 2. 4 cells around body in posterior of L1 larva that divide to give 8 cells and then expression lost. May be muscle cells. 3. Half of uterus closest to vulva. Some cells expressing early in somatic gonad may be precursors. Some possible background in anterior body wall muscle.
• Primary Identifier: Expr7691
• Remark: Clone: pUL#JRH/AE8
