---|---|---|
SciCA1 (scl-CA1) | Sclerocytes, weak signal in ring of posterior-most micromeres in larvae | All stages (including spicule-free larva and postlarval stage i), higher expression in top region of sponge |
SciCA2 (scl-CA2) | Sclerocytes, weak signal in ring of posterior-most micromeres in larvae | All stages (including spicule-free larva and postlarval stage i), higher expression in top region of sponge |
SciCA3 | Elevated expression in oocytes and early embryos; ubiquitous expression in other cell types including all larval cells. | All stages, higher expression in sponges with oocytes and early embryos, larvae and postlarval stage i |
SciCA4 | Larval macromeres | In larvae and postlarval stages ii-v, low expression in adult sponges |
SciCA5 | Undetected | Higher in larvae, postlarval stages i-iii, young syconoid sponge, low in other stages and adult sponges |
SciCA6 | Undetected | Very low expression during embryonic and postembryonic development |
SciCA7 | Proximal exopinacocytes between radial tubes | Low expression in adult sponges |
SciCA8 | Undetected | Low expression in adult sponges |
SciCA9 (LCA) | Undetected | Highly expressed in postlarval-juvenile stages i-v, low expression otherwise |
