WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr516

• Pattern: Hypodermal cells in embryo; ventral hypodermal cells, hyp5, hyp6, hyp7 in head, and hyp7, hyp10 in tail at L1. Low, mosaic expression in seam cells. Staining in hypodermal cells of the body, head and tail of the embryo from late comma stage onwards in each of the four larval stages and in adults. Staining observed in the cytoplasm. With nuclear localization signal, first detected at comma-stage in nuclei of hypodermal cells. L1 anti-lacZ antibodies hyp7 and P-cell nuclei, hyp5, hyp6 and hyp7 in the head and hyp7 and hyp10 nuclei in the tail with similar level of expression. High level of expression in hyp7, P-cells and particularly hypodermal cells of the head and tail but show much lower level of expression in hypodermal seam cells. Expression was seen in increasing number of nuclei at each developmental stage, including the adult, corresponding to the increase in hypodermal syncytial cell nuclei. Staining in other hypodermal cells of the head and tail but was mosaic, less intense and took longer time to develop. Minority of animals (20%) show staining in seam cells. This was very mosaic. GFP pattern entirely consistent with lacZ.
