GFP-tagged UCP-4 was specifically localized in the mitochondria of the body wall muscle and hypodermis.
Type
Reporter_gene
Pattern
ucp-4 was expressed throughout the body of adult worms and that expression was initiated at an early developmental stage (comma stage embryos). ucp-4 expression was observed in several tissues, including pharyngeal muscle, body wall muscle, hypodermis, and head neurons.
