Phenotype : WBPhenotype:0001526 ciliated neuron morphology variant

Description  Animals exhibit variations in the structure or organization of any one of the specialized sensory receptor cells of the nervous system that compared to control animals. In C. elegans, these specialized cells are characterized as having axoneme containing dendritic projections emanating from their cell body.

Identifier Name Description
WBPhenotype:0000615 cilia morphology variant Animals exhibit variations in the structure or organization of the microtubule-based dendritic projections extending from the cell body, compared to that observed in control animals. In C. elegans, cilia are classified as channel cilia or wing cilia depending on their placement within the sensillum. Channel cilia of control animals are cylindrical, extend into the sensillum pore and are exposed to the outside. Wing cilia of control animals vary in shape, are embedded in the sensillum sheath cell and are not typically refractory to dyes indicating exposure to the outside.
WBPhenotype:0000881 cilia mislocalized Animals exhibit variations in the placement of the microtuble-based dendritic projections in relation to the sensillum neuron, from that observed in control animals.
WBPhenotype:0000884 AWB morphology variant Animals exhibit variations in the structure or organization of either of a set of two ciliated wing neurons, AWBL or AWBR, of the amphid sensilla, compared to that observed in control animals.

Identifier Name Description
WBPhenotype:0000905 neuron morphology variant Animals display variations in the structure or organization of components of the neuronal cell internal to the cell itself or in relation to the cellular environment compared to control. A neuron is a major cell type of nervous tissue specialized for transmission of information in the form of patterns of impulses.
WBPhenotype:0000299 sensillum morphology variant Animals exhibit variations in the quantity, structure or organization of the components of the sense organs comprised of ciliated sensory nerve endings enveloped by sheath and/or socket cells, from that observed in control animals.
