WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr2406

• Primary Identifier: Expr2406
• Subcellular Localization: VHA-5 was detectable in a dot-like compartment in every embryonic cell. The compartment was found exclusively around the nucleus and observed during embryogenesis. A cup-shaped structure was often observed around nuclei instead of the dot-like compartment. On the other hand, VHA-5 expression changed dramatically at the larval stage and became dominant in an H-shaped excretory cell, consistent with the results for transgenic worms carrying the vha-5::GFP fusion gene. See Expr2403 for vha-5 GFP analysis.
