WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  mtm-9::gfp reporter was expressed in a broad range of tissues, including the muscle, intestine, hypodermis and neurons (including the CAN neuron in the mid-body region). Mtm-9 was also expressed in the rectal epithelial cells that are the major source of EGL-20 Wnt. Primary Identifier  Expr9224

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
Major cell type of nervous tissue, specialized for transmission of information in the form of patterns of impulses. neuron neurone WBbt:0003679
Contractile cell that makes up muscle tissue. muscle cell   WBbt:0003675

a group of hypodermal cells that lie along the apical midline of the hypodermis, at the extreme left and right sides between nose and tail seam cell lateral hypodermis WBbt:0005753
entire syncytium of hyp7 hyp7 syncytium hyp7 WBbt:0005734
cell of epithelium, the layer of cells that cover the external surface of an organism as well as forming an inner lining between the tissues and organs of that organism and the external environment. In C. elegans epithelial cells include epithelium of the alimentary tract, intestinal cells, hypodermis, interfacial cells and somatic gonad cells. epithelial cell epithelium WBbt:0003672
Process runs along excretory canal, no synapses, essential for survival CANL lineage name: ABalapaaapa WBbt:0004949
Process runs along excretory canal, no synapses, essential for survival CANR lineage name: ABalappappa WBbt:0004947
These cells include: B, F, Y, U, K' and K. All rectal epithelial cells contain secretory membrane stacks along this region facing the lumenal cuticle and produce some portion of the cuticular lining of the rectum. These are interfacial cells that connect the alimentary system to the main body syncytium. rectal epithelial cell rectal epithelium WBbt:0008182
