High impact information on kel-1

  • Analyses using immunostaining and reporter gene expression indicated that kel-1 was expressed almost exclusively in the g1 pharyngeal gland cells during late embryogenesis and at all developmental stages thereafter [1].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of kel-1

  • The kel-1 deletion mutant appeared normal in morphology, movement and pumping action for the initial two to three days after hatching, but it failed to convey foods effectively to intestine and could hardly increase in body size [1].
