WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9297

• Pattern: SNAP-29-GFP is expressed widely, including the excretory canal, gland cells, hypodermis, vulva, coelomocyte, intestine, gonad sheath cells and some neurons.
• Primary Identifier: Expr9297
• Subcellular Localization: SNAP-29-GFP appeared enriched on intracellular puncta (identified below as endosomal organelles) as well as on or near the plasma membrane. In the intestine, SNAP-29-GFP appeared most highly enriched near the apical membrane, but was also visible on basolateral structures. SNAP-29- GFP expressed in the germline under the control of the pie-1 promoter localized to intracellular vesicles, with enrichment in the cortex near the plasma membrane in oocytes and early embryos.

female genital.	vulva		WBbt:0006748
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
Epidermal layer.	hypodermis	epidermis	WBbt:0005733
Major cell type of nervous tissue, specialized for transmission of information in the form of patterns of impulses.	neuron	neurone	WBbt:0003679
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
Four processes (canals) of the excretory canal cell each contain a central collecting lumen which feeds to a central lumenal canal in the cell body; the central canal forms a specialized membrane to release fluids into the excretory duct. These five canals form a continuous H-shaped channel which extends almost the full length of the body, generally in contact with the lateral hypodermis and the pseudocoelom.	excretory canal	canal	WBbt:0005775
five pairs of thin gonadal sheath cells form a single layer covering the germ line component of each arm, each pair occupying a stereotyped position along the gonad proximal-distal axis.	gonadal sheath cell		WBbt:0005828
A variety of very different cell types which share cytoplasmic features (such as large membrane-bound granules) that suggest a role in secretion, thus termed gland cells.	gland cell		WBbt:0003670
