WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr11227

• Pattern: ACR-23 is expressed mainly in the body wall muscle cells, as well as in a few unidentified head and tail neurons. The fusion protein was visible from larval stage two, where it expressed at low levels. Robust expression was observed from the third larval stage on to adulthood. Co-expression of myo- 3::mcherry was visible in the same cells, indicating that ACR-23 is expressed in body-wall muscles. No ACR-23::GFP expression was found in embryos and first stage (L1) larvae.
