WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr7738

• Pattern: Strong expression observed in UL2824. The same pattern but weaker was observed in UL2822. But no expression was observed in the only other line generated. Expression was mainly in 4 amphids and 4 other head nerve cells. Weaker expression also seen in dorsal and ventral nerve cords and tail nerve cells. Expression in lateral nerve cells and coelomocytes can be seen but even more weakly. There is also weak, potentially background, expression in posterior intestine and anterior body wall muscle cells. All of these components were seen from late embryogenesis to adult. In L1s, there is also weak expression in the hypodermis apart from the seam cells.

Definition	Name	Synonym	Primary Identifier
A chain of very large cuboidal cells forming a wide central lumen in which food arrives from the posterior pharynx, is digested, and from which waste products proceed to the rectum. Intestinal rings form in groups of two and four cells surrounding the common lumen; thus the epithelium is only one cell deep at any point, with neighboring cells firmly secured to their neighbors by apical adherens junctions. These cells have very large nuclei and many large vacuoles, yolk granules, and other inclusions; the latter increase in number and electron density as the animal ages.	intestine	gut	WBbt:0005772

A free-floating spherical cell lying in the pseudocoelomic cavity of larvae and adult C. elegans which can endocytose many compounds, possibly for immune surveillance. There are six coelomocytes in adult hermaphrodites, and they display prominent cytoplasmic inclusions and vacuoles.	coelomocyte		WBbt:0005751
