WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9780

• Pattern: Compared to the other jun-1 reporter gene fusions constructed in this series (e.g. see UL3240, UL3496 and UL3512), GFP expression was quite strong, from embryo to adult, in the pharyngeal-intestinal valve, spermathecae, and probably all muscle cells. The GFP was weakly nuclear-localized with some cytoplasmic.
• Primary Identifier: Expr9780

an accordion-like tube that contains sperm and is the site of oocyte fertilization.	spermatheca		WBbt:0005319
A group of six equivalent cells forms a tightly constructed `valve` that links the posterior bulb of the pharynx to the anterior four cells of the intestine. These six cells comprise a small epithelial channel with a cuticular lining in continuity with the pharyngeal cuticle and link the lumen of the pharynx to the large lumen of the anterior intestine.	pharyngeal-intestinal valve	cardia	WBbt:0005767
