WormMine

WS294

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Previously, mec-2 beta-galactosidase and GFP reporters driven by 2.5 kb of upstream promoter sequence were expressed in the six touch receptor neurons plus additional neurons in the head and tail (see Expr1557). This additional expression was confirmed. Primary Identifier  Expr3307
