WS294

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expressed in hypodermis. Primary Identifier  Expr2790
Subcellular Localization  SEC-23::GFP localized to discrete spots or foci surrounding the ER. In the C. elegans hypodermis at the time of first cuticle synthesis, an extensive ER network surrounds the hypodermal nuclei and can be observed by immunofluorescence detection of the ER resident enzyme protein di-sulfide isomerase (PDI-2). The SEC-23::GFP foci were positioned in a nonrandom manner around the ER network, with the majority of foci on the apical side of the ER networks, closest to the apical surface of the cells. In deeper focal planes toward the basal side of these cells, there were relatively few foci.
