2 Expression Patterns

Remark Reporter Gene Primary Identifier Pattern Subcellular Localization
    Expr15194 We consistently observed aat-1::mCherry fluorescence in several pairs of head neurons; pharynx; reproductive system -including vulval muscles, uterine muscles, and uterine-vulva cells; excretory cells; and weak transgene expression in the intestine of adult animals. Reporter fusions controlled by the aat-1 and nkat-1 promoters showed overlapping expression patterns in RMDV and RIM neurons  
    Expr12514 IFA-2::GFP protein localizes to the epidermal fibrous organelles (hemidesmosomes), the uterine seam and touch neurons. Uterine expression includes both utse and uv cells. The seam expression appears at the L4-adult molt and probably correlates with expression of IFA-2 in both the utse and the seam cells as they terminally differentiate.
