WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9874

• Primary Identifier: Expr9874
• Remark: Picture: Figure 3.
• Subcellular Localization: EXL-1::GFP but not EXC-4::DsRed2 is targeted to muscle dense bodies (focal adhesion-like structures) and muscle Golgi membranes, the plasma membrane of muscle arms, and the Golgi apparatus in the neurons PVD and CAN. EXL-1::GFP targets multiple subcellular structures in coloemocytes cells, including lysosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum. EXC-4::DsRed2 and EXL-1::GFP are co-expressed in the intestine and in some neurons. In the intestine, EXC-4::DsRed2 and EXL-1::GFP co-localize to the intestinal luminal membrane and to lysosomes. Expression of EXC-4 and EXL-1 was observed in distinct but overlapping sets of neurons.

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
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 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
