Expression Pattern :

Pattern  The nhr-41a reporter gene is expressed in the hypodermal seam, excretory cell, and rectal epithelia. Varied and inconsistent expression was also observed in head neurons. Primary Identifier  Expr2869
Remark  Reporter gene fusion type not specified. Two GFP reporter constructs were generated, containing distinct putative promoters for nhr-41a and nhr-41b, the latter promoter corresponding to genomic DNA in the large fourth intron. The analysis suggests different expression patterns for the two nhr-41 mRNA isoforms, although it is a formal possibility that enhancers in the fourth intron could be acting on both presumed promoters. Thus, the nhr-41 reporter gene analysis may be revealing distinct functions for the two isoforms.
