WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr12262

• Pattern: The translational GFP-tagged fusion protein was expressed in a subset of ventral cord motor neurons (VA, VB, DA, DB), the motor neuron PDA, the tail interneurons DVA and PVT, the head interneurons AIY and AVD, and in the head mesodermal cell. The LGC-35::GFP construct, which includes the introns, exhibited robust expression in the sphincter muscle, and all of the acetylcholine ventral cord motor neurons, except the AS and VC class of neurons. No localization was observed in GABA motor neurons.
• Primary Identifier: Expr12262
• Subcellular Localization: The LGC-35::GFP fusion protein was localized to the plasma membrane as expected, but fluorescence was also observed in the cytoplasm probably due to transgene overexpression.
