An integrated data resource for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  dop-1 reporters were expressed in support cells in the head, as well as in neurons in the head, ventral cord and tail. They were not expressed in the command interneurons that affect locomotion nor in any dopaminergic neurons, as expression of the RFP reporters for dop-1 and dop-3 did not overlap expression of integrated GFP reporters for glr-1 or dat-1, which label these two classes of cells, respectively. dop-1 also showed expression in the PVD neurons, which is thus a second site of coexpression with dop-3. dop-1 reporters were expressed in support cells in the head, as well as in neurons in the head, ventral cord and tail. They were not expressed in the command interneurons that affect locomotion nor in any dopaminergic neurons, as expression of the RFP reporters for dop-1 and dop-3 did not overlap expression of integrated GFP reporters for glr-1 or dat-1, which label these two classes of cells, respectively. Primary Identifier  Expr3047
Remark  At a gross level, expression of the dop-1 and dop-3 reporters did not appear to overlap. Reporter gene fusion type not specified.
