WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expressed in embryos, larvae, and adults. ERM-1-GFP is enriched along the luminal surfaces of intestinal, excretory canal, and gonadal tubular epithelia, but not in the remaining organ lumina of the pharynx, rectum, and excretory pore cell, which all secrete cuticle. Primary Identifier  Expr2964
Remark  In situ RNA hybridization is consistent with this organ-specific expression pattern, and additionally detects early embryonic erm-1 RNA. Subcellular Localization  Enriched along the luminal surfaces.

H-shaped cell associated with the excretory system, largest cell in C. elegans. excretory cell excretory canal cell WBbt:0005812
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
any of 20 large epithelial cells which form a tube and are mostly situated as bilaterally symmetric pairs around the tubular lumen. Each of these cell pairs forms an intestinal ring ( II-IX int rings). The most anterior intestinal ring (int ring I), however, is made of four cells. Intestinal cells contain large nuclei with large nucleoli and numerous autofluorescent granules in their cytoplasm. intestinal cell   WBbt:0005792
