TY - GEN T1 - Widespread gpa-4 promoter-driven expression during Caenorhabditis elegans development AU - Osuna-Luque, Jaime AU - Ewald, Collin Y AU - Meister, Peter DO - 10.17912/micropub.biology.000443 UR - http://beta.micropublication.org/journals/biology/micropub-biology-000443/ AB - In C. elegans, the gpa-4 gene encodes a G-protein α-subunit, part of an evolutionary conserved Gα family expressed in muscle and neuronal cells (Jansen et al. 1999). Previous studies using fluorescent reporters have suggested that the gpa-4 promoter drives expression exclusively in the head chemosensory neurons ASIL and ASIR (Jansen et al. 1999). This led subsequent studies to consider the gpa-4 promoter as ASI-specific (see Table 1 for all studies using the gpa-4 promoter to drive gene expression). PY - 2021 JO - microPublication Biology ER -
