| Pattern | 7.5 kb mRNA transcript present in mixed stage embryos, L1 (intense staining) and in L4 larvae. Strong staining at all three stages. Dot blots of total nematode RNA from L2 and L4 larvae. Intense staining in L2 and L4. Immunoblots of nematode homogenates from L1 and L4 larvae. Reaction with specific mouse antibody 28.2 for detection of myosin heavy chain B (unc-54) localized in body wall muscles with exception of a few minor muscles. | Primary Identifier | Expr735 |
