Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  GFP expression was first seen in embryos and persists throughout all stages, in many neurons and potentially other cells in the head, both inside and outside of the pharynx. GFP was also observed in the pharyngeal-intestinal valve and possibly head muscle. The expression pattern includes components seen in UL3399 and UL3833 (transgenic for reporter gene fusions with gfp inserted immediately after the daf-19c and daf-19d start codons, respectively) but with additional components. Several tail cells, possibly neurons, and occasionally ventral cord nerve cells, body wall muscle and hypodermis show GFP expression. Primary Identifier  Expr9767

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
