Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expression of let-268::GFP begins at the 1.5-fold stage and continues throughout development. let-268::GFP is detected in the body wall muscle cells and in the glial like cells (GLR cells). However, let-268::GFP was not observed in the distal tip cells of the gonad, the spermatheca, or the vulva muscles. Primary Identifier  Expr1065
Subcellular Localization  GFP signal produced from the let-268::GFP fusion protein appears to localize to a subcellular organelle that surrounds the nucleus in the body wall muscle cells and the GLR cells.

  The C. elegans life stage spanning 620-800min(hatch) after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. A stage after elongation is over. The last stage of embryogenesis. Also called pre-hatched embryo, late embryo or morphogenetic embryo. fully-elongated embryo Ce WBls:0000021
  The C. elegans life stage spanning 520-620min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo is elongated and tripple fold. A stage between 2-fold embryo and fully-elongated embryo. Also called pretzel embryo or pretzel stage. 3-fold embryo Ce WBls:0000020
