WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr10006

• Pattern: At the onset of pocket closure vab-1 reporters expresses in right and left side analogs of V3 (sporadically), V4, QV5, and P9/10. The reporter also expresses in bridge and scaffold cells, which together comprise a band of PLX-2 and VAB-1 expressing cells that cross the open pocket, referred to below as the plexin band. Expression in all of these cells continues throughout pocket closure and beyond. Among the P cells, expression is most prominent in P9/10 right (R) and left (L) for all reporters.
• Primary Identifier: Expr10006
