| Pattern | We first used the gpa-16 promoter (Jansen et al., 1999) to broadly drive the expression of GCaMP3 in pharyngeal muscle. We characterized the expression pattern of this transgene using confocal microscopy and observed bright fluorescence in the pm2 and pm3 muscles and also in the mc1 marginal cells. We also observed occasional dim fluorescence in pm1 (3 of 10 animals). | Primary Identifier | Expr15821 |
